'Hedrock almost forgot the spy ray. It continued to glow, the picture on the screen showing the Imperial conference room as clearly as ever. There were still men bowing low over the hand of the cold-faced young woman who sat on the throne chair, and the sound of their voices came distinctly. Everything was as it should be.
'For Hedrock, however, all interest in the palatial room, that courtly scene, had faded. The icy words of the young woman spun around and around in his mind, though minutes had now passed since she had spoken them.
'"Under the circumstances," she had said, "we cannot afford to take further risks with this Weapon Shop turncoat. What has happened is too important. Accordingly, General Grall, you will, as a purely precautionary measure, arrest Captain Hedrock an hour after lunch and and hang him. The time sequence is important, as he will, as usual, sit at my table during lunch, and also because I wish to be present at the execution."'

A productive afternoon making art together at Pataphysical Studios.
Doctors Canard and Rindbrain completed an illuminated painting that is constantly changing, as the light box around it cycles through the colors of the rainbow. This creates an ethereal experience, as the brush strokes quietly shimmer and transform, to the sound of Brian Eno’s Music for Airports (see video: vimeo.com/151282015 ). Nicely done, doctors!
Our visitors this week were Michael Easton and his son Kyan, who seemed to enjoy themselves. A friend of Dr. Figurine’s, Michael is quite an accomplished artist, inventor and engineer and showed us some of his cool creations, including magical mushroom lights inspired by this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5LjGFkpApw
Doctor Fabio showed a Chinese New Year wonderbox prototype he is building for his upcoming maker workshops (bit.ly/wonderbox-overview ). Doctors Really and Igor worked on bringing sound to more wonderboxes. Dr. Rindbrain showed his new Universe cards about Mamie. Dr. Figurine worked on a Neopixel badge for her lab coat. Doctor Zboon showed some of his new pataphysical talismans. A fine time was had by all.

More booze from Mephit Furmeet. ;-) I am told that this is very good. I do not know,because I really do not drink alcohol.
Thanks anyway! The thought is greatly appreciated, and someone is going to love this after it ages a few more decades.

Teacher Geo Monley and his high school students are building an animatronic city at Tam High: Maker Field. Here’s their work in progress, which now features several tall buildings and multiple levels.
Geo and I are also teaching a similar class for middle school students: City of the Future. Children will combine arts and electronics to make a model of what our world could be like in 100 years. They will build a futuristic home with a cardboard ‘wonderbox’ and animated characters, bringing them to life with lights, sounds and motion.

We had a blast at the first meetup for Tam Makers, our new makerspace in Mill Valley. We hosted this free event at the wood shop at Tamalpais High School in Mill Valley on June 8, 2016.
A diverse group of people came to the visit the shop, learn about our classes and discuss how to grow our maker community. Participants ranged from experienced artists, technologists, makers and woodworkers, to people interested in learning new skills, as well as high school and middle school students and their parents.
We opened the shop at 6pm and folks started to connect right away, checking out some of our demos, showing off recent projects and touring the space. At 7pm, we gave a presentation on Tam Makers, and talked about our first courses, meetups and tools for adults and youth. We then discussed these programs as a group and received some really helpful feedback.
Most people were very interested in participating in Tam Makers and using the makerspace regularly. They also liked the mix of classes, ranging from maker art to technology and woodworking. Some people signed up for classes on the spot and most wanted to join more meetups. Many offered to volunteer as well. One person said this event had a great community feeling, unlike more commercially motivated makerspaces.
We’re really happy that this first meetup went so well and that so many folks want to participate actively. We look forward to collaborating with our new maker friends very soon!

Once a week, I mentor Natalina to help her with her french, as well as expand her maker and multimedia skills. In today’s class, she wrote her first few lines of Arduino code and it went really well: she felt really good about it. I also coached her to make a circuit to light up a lantern with a cardboard switch for our Chinese New Year Wonderbox, which was also successful. Natalina completed all the tasks quickly and keeps getting more comfortable with technology. Yay! Based on what we’re learning together, I will adapt some of these lessons for future courses with more students in coming months.
We also reviewed and tweaked our first video storyboard of Violet’s Journey, the fairy tale video that we are creating with her decorated ducks. We’ve now added music and dialog for each act, which gave us a good feel for the final experience:now that we’ve added the sounds, this fairy tale of ours has a lot more emotional depth and richness. We still have a ways to go on the production front: program our wonderbots to move as needed for each scene; shoot more footage of the ducks against green screen; create magical backdrops in Photoshop; superimpose the ducks over the backdrops; edit it all together. We plan to stretch out this work over the next couple months, but it’s already looking (and sounding) really good!
Here’s the Arduino Guide I created for these classes: bit.ly/arduino-workshop-guide
