We had an excellent day at Maker Faire Detroit! We even got a tent this year! And remembered to take food and water breaks!
Chris Salzman, Dylan Goings, and I made nearly 100 water rockets with kids (Chris and Dylan did the yeomen’s share–they are like a two-man water-rocket education assembly line!), and we talked ourselves hoarse about simple synths, easy amps, $10 electric guitars, DIY games, and more–despite the terrible roar of this monstrous air-horn organ just a few dozen feet away.
Anyway, here are a fistful of pics from today (incidentally, I only shot the last one myself; that’s Chris rocking the No Starch Press temporary tattoo. Check out those guns!) See you makers tomorrow; I’m talking in the Drive-in Theater at 11:30am, and at my booth right outside the Automotive Hall of Fame all day. Come by and launch a rocket with us!
