MAKE my day

Today, we completely geeked out. A magazine called “Make”, hosted an event called Maker Faire in San Mateo. It was extreme overload on the engineering and science side, but I loved the craft pavilions! Keith decided I’m a “creek” a craft-geek. Here are some shots of what we saw.

Can you guess why I shot this? Yes, dear friends, a hotel made of legos!

A barnyard of computer parts. I had to hold Keith back.

And this isn’t a very good shot, but they had these huge tesla coils, when turned on were incredibly loud and threw giant streams of energy to each other. Or something like that. Not quite sure how to describe the science of it, but all the geeks in the room were cheering. That kind of creeped me out, I mean it was neat, but worth-cheering-neat? Not to me.
