I strive to go to as many arts and craft fairs as I can during the holidays, to scout emerging makers and crafters whose wares I’ve never seen before, and of course to buy handmade gifts for friends and family! Which means I’m especially looking forward to the 7th Annual BUST Magazine Craftacular next month in NYC.

Last month, we had our first Open Make event, opening the doors of MAKE HQ in Sebastopol California and letting people check out Make: Labs and the new Project Make classroom. We had such a great turnout that we’ve decided to make this a reoccurring event.
Digital Meets Physical will bring makers, software hackers, and DIY geeks together for two days of outrageous fun, using the Netduino platform and other fun toys to build our brains out. We’ll be hacking at the AS220 Labs, a hackerspace where tools, technology and inspiration abound. With no less than 10 top quality watering holes within spitting distance, power breaks and refueling will be top notch.
MIT’s Professor Neil Gershenfeld gave a fascinating and engaging talk at the Carnegie Institute of Washington on November 3rd. The event was a benefit for the emerging FabLabDC, which is intended to provide a high-tech fabrication laboratory within sight of the US Capitol.
As this post goes live, we are eleven hours and eleven minutes into the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the eleventh year of the twenty-first century. 11/11/11 is being hailed, variously, as “Elevensday,” the Last Binary Day of the Century, and Nigel Tufnel Day, and we here at MAKE would like to invite you to celebrate by joining us in building something, perhaps this weekend, that goes to eleven. Just be careful not to confuse feet (‘) and inches (“).
