For et rush det var å ha stand på Maker Faire i år! Vi hadde byttemarked og kreativt verksted, og det var til tider så fullt av folk (mest skoleungdom) på standen at det var umulig å bevege seg, bokstavelig talt. Helt rått! Spesiell takk til NRK for donasjoner av spennende elektronikk! Opplegget er i… Fortsett å lese Postapokalyptisk Supermarked

Mini-diy: Upcycled tin cans
Simple DIY project, using two empty tin cans, the back covers of two old issues of Computer arts, and the roots from tall grasses growing at our local beach to tied it all together. Doesn’t get much greener than this :) [flickr_set id=»72157625126294084″]

From 1973 until 1990, he also spent… Fortsett å lese Read this: Planetwalker – 22 Years of Walking. 17 Years of Silence, by John Francis

Mini-diy: Homemade beads from electrical cables
I recently found about 40 meters of electrical cables in the trash at work. It’s threaded with 4-7 strands of solid core wire which I needed for a DIY project (to be revealed soon), and I ended up with quite alot of white plastic tubing that I really didn’t want to throw out. So I… Fortsett å lese Mini-diy: Homemade beads from electrical cables
