I had planned to draw glitchy scribbles over the top. Not sure now. One thing is for sure, they look lush big. I will upload some bigger versions in due course, along with some more cans.
Enjoy.

Maker Faire
Posted: April 1st, 2009 | Author: Sam | Filed under: General Updates | 1 Comment »I attended the recent Maker Faire in Newcastle. It was the first time the mighty Maker Faire had visited the UK. It was a really inspiring event. I met some great people including spending some time with the delightful Mitch Altman, who is making the world a better place, one TV at a time.

Here are a few more things you don’t get to see every day:
Newcastle was cool too. Went out taking some photographs and generally enjoying the surroundings:
Couple of bars stocked Chimay White too, so I was a happy boy :)
Let’s not mention the hotel…was kept up by people shagging in the corridor and my somewhat angry neighbour. Joy.
A wicked time overall though! Big ups to O’Reilly / Make: magazine and roll on the next UK Maker Faire!
