Maker Faire Daily — Our Team is on the Ground

Maker Faire Daily — Our Team is on the Ground

Maker Faire Daily is our online fast-news feed during Maker Faire. This weekend in Detroit, stafffmembers and makers will be posting images, thoughts, and video snapshots from the grounds of the Henry Ford Museum. Here are some tidbits from the lead up.

So why not bookmark the page, subscribe to the RSS feed, or via email to get a remote peek at the event, the makers, and their inspiring projects. Every night starting next Friday, I’ll be recapping the day’s events here on makezine.com.

Continuing the tradition from last year, OmniCorpDetroit is hosting the official Maker Faire Detroit kick-off party this Friday night, and i3Detroit is hosting the official afterparty Saturday evening. If last year was any indication, both will be a fantastic time. involving great people, great music, and inspiring projects and workspaces. [And lots of adult beverages.] -Michael Doyle

We stopped by the famous Heidelberg Project today. It is the life’s work of Tyree Guyton. His art transforms a city block into an inspirational space, and people like us come from all over to see it. -Dale Dougherty

Tents are going up. The Life Size Mouse Trap is starting to take shape. Our team is on the ground. This “hack” wagon is ready for loading and unloading. -Dale Dougherty
