Prepping for #makerfaireruhr this weekend! Got a lot of reassembly & repairs to do 🤖 #makerfaire #robotics #livemusic #ponytrap
One of my violin students accused me of lying when they brought up a movie they’d just seen and I told them I’d watched it on VHS… Not that they don’t think I’m super old, just that that tech is essentially prehistoric.
The newest edition of Make: Magazine, an awesome 6 page spread based on conversations w/ Dale Dougherty about Ponytrap & our drumming robots! Thanks to the great people at Maker Faire for all of the support & good times over the years! Available online at Maker Shed and at your favorite newsstand.
So many are here for fun, obscure takes… but Alec Guinness as Ben Kenobi has been the favorite eye-roller of boomers for literally 50 years and it is damned near universal to almost every single human Gen X and later.
I literally build robots and have never once used AI for anything - the only place it rears its stupid head is in my search results, where it is frequently wrong. Easy to avoid unless you’re just the most intellectually incurious person on Earth (who also hates artists and wants the laziest thing.)
Bringing NOVA and MAX to the #BonnefantenMuseum Maastricht for Free Friday this week! Come checknout some mind-blowing beats and maybe try your hand at playing along!
100% agree.
MAX, NOVA, and I will be at #MakerDaysEindhoven all weekend if you want to pop up & see something weird!
I can’t remember if they serve tacos at Dali… but if they do, then, there.
MAX is flying home! We’ve got a couple of weeks off & I think we’re both ready for a nap 🙂
Show’s over - heading home. Great weekend at @exploratorium.bsky.social ! One of the coolest venues I’ve ever performed.
Amazing first day in San Francisco! Looking forward to a full weekend of robots, noise, and fun @exploratorium.bsky.social
Ready to rock the After Dark party at @exploratorium.bsky.social
Looks like someone’s improvising robot parts in a hotel room…
MAX is right down there! Just waiting for me to come join at @exploratorium.bsky.social
On the plane, NOVA in the hold, about to liftoff for S.F. and reconvene with MAX at @exploratorium.bsky.social
Me & NOVA on the train, heading to San Francisco for a super fun weekend at @exploratorium.bsky.social !
MAX is on-site at the @exploratorium.bsky.social , just waiting to melt faces!
Was lucky enough to play there, coming up from Austin, TX! We played Downtown Beirut, Pyramid, & CBGB’s all the same trip and spent the rest of the time drinking at the Scrap Bar - it was magical.
MAX has been cleared through Customs! See you in San Francisco next week @exploratorium.bsky.social !
Rockin’ the name-tag at #MakerFaireLille
