Alt.SXSW: ArcAttack! and More at SXSW Maker Show and Tell

Chris Locke from Heartless Machine

If you have already been watching MAKE’s alt.SXSW livestream, stay tuned today until 3:30 CST and you’ll catch MAKE’s official SXSW podcast.  We are doing a SXSW Maker Show and Tell, profiling local Austinites and makers here for THE FESTIVAL.  (If you have a SXSW badge, the panel is 3:30 at Driskill Hotel’s Maximillian Room, 6th and Brazos.)

Some of the fun we’ll be having:

• Joe DiPrima of ArcAttack! will be showing off some mad electricity tricks.
• Christopher A. Locke’s Heartless Machines (pictured)
• Dr. Bleep of Bleeplabs fame
• Ethan Reesor’s Jacob’s ladder
• Austin Tinkering School’s giant bow & arrow project
• 17 year old Markus Clardy’s “Android in Steel”
• YOU!  If you’re here for SXSW and have a project you’d like to show off, come to the Driskill / Maximillian Room by 3 PM.

ALSO at SXSW:  The MAKE and O’Reilly booth is hopping!  Learn to solder, meet makers, see the new MakerBot Replicator, shop O’Reilly publications, MAKE, and O’Reilly special swag and free MAKE Kits Special Issue. Come say hi; we’re booth #510 in the Convention Center Trade Show.
