Full NewsHour Piece on Maker Movement
Here’s the full Miles O’Brien piece that aired tonight on PBS NewsHour. Really well-done, neat little package exploring the DIY/maker movement in general, the Maker Faires, the critical state of STEM education and making as a potential answer to that, and more. Follows the DeRose family and some high schoolers building projects for the Faire and then presenting them there. Good stuff.
Whoosh Boom Bill Gurstelle
Our favorite pyromaniac, Bill Gurstelle, is back, and just in time for the 4th of July. He’s also here to talk about/excerpt from his latest book, The Practical Pyromaniac. We’re always excited to have Bill onboard, not only ’cause he’s a great guy, an epic maker, and a good writer, but being the pyro that he is, you just never know what he’s fixin’ to immolate. Keeps a person on their toes.
