World Maker Faire New York is coming quickly and it’s sure to be a cascade of amazing projects and experiences. Sometimes they all come so fast and with such volume that it’s hard to remember them all. What specific memories do you have of past Maker Faires that you’re particularly fond of?
I’ve been to several Maker Faires in the past, but it was only at the last Maker Faire Bay Area that I was able to catch the Power Racing Series. What I pictured would be a DIY go-kart race was more of a celebration of DIY motoring, with crashes, calamities, and camaraderie abounding. The event became less about the race and more about the fun and spectacle of it. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing it again in New York this year.
