MAKE contributing editor Bill Gurstelle talks to students about the joys of making, invention, at TED-Ed, and in the process, creates a series of audio speakers from found/common materials, including one made out of a potato chip that sounds surprisingly good.

Look for lots of awesome Bill Gurstelle projects in our upcoming “Danger Issue,” Volume 35.
