After selling out The Echo in April, Bambu began conceptualizing his next live set in Los Angeles with all new exclusive material along with the classics. On August 24th, The Echoplex will be hosting Bambu and a lineup of Cali up-and-coming noise makers that have already made their respective marks locally.
Still riding off the success of his last full-length album, ...one rifle per family., and finishing up his latest mixtape, Sun Of A Gun, Bambu has had a busy 2013. Ready to unveil the new material and some up-to-date reworks of his fan favorites, The Echoplex is sure to jump during this Soul Assassin's last Los Angeles headline show for 2013. There's been a lot to talk about this year, and if you've ever been to a Bambu show you know that nothing is off limits.
The new mixtape, Sun Of A Gun will also be available at the show, along with all Bambu albums, t-shirts and other merchandise.

Maker Faire 2017 was bigger, louder and hotter than previous years. Many of the attractions were still the same, but they felt more grown up. I particularly enjoyed the illuminated art in the Dark Room, such as Peter Hudson’s 3D Stroboscopic Zoetrope. I also enjoyed all the ingenious robot exhbits and the Traveling Spectacular’s vaudeville performance
I gave a talk about our Maker Art classes on Sunday morning. We teach children to create magical worlds together, combining art, tech and storytelling. Our students get really engaged in the process, which helps them develop their creative, problem-solving and social skills.
The presentation was well received by a great group of teachers, parents and kids. I connected with several librarians and teachers interested in teaching Maker Art in their communities. And one mom reached out to me afterwards to say this was the best talk she heard this year.
Maker Faire remains the Mecca for Bay Area DIY hobbyists and it was well worth the trip for me. I made some good connections after my talk and learned more about robots for our next classes. Onwards!

Although not an invention, craft, or design, these homemade beauties take some serious skill to make. Every year, the Saturday after Thanksgiving is reserved for making perogies with my family. Its a Slavic (my mom's side is Ukrainian) dish my family has been making for as long as I can remember.

Detail of the maker's badge on the front of one of the vehicles. The provenance is a bit complicated, but Monotral was the trade name of the Italian company Viberti, whose monocoque bodywork was licence built in Spain using Pegaso running units.
Pegaso's history appears to be a patchwork of licensing arrangements with various other manufacturers in many countries, including Leyland. Pegaso built the Comet truck under licence. The engine in these buses is a Pegaso item, apparently, but the sound is not a million miles away from an 0.600.
