鈥淭here鈥檚 no better way to celebrate a period of creative output than a party and a show-and-tell, and that鈥檚 what Maker Made has become,鈥 says Zack Weaver, one of the show鈥檚 curators and a creative technologist at BLDG 61: 麻豆影院 Library Makerspace. 听BLDG 61鈥檚 makerspace provides maker education to the public for free in an 鈥渋nspiring and inclusive environment.鈥
Weaver, an ATLAS lecturer who played a key role in establishing the ATLAS BTU Lab, says inspiration for Maker Made dates back to his days as a Carnegie Mellon student of Professor Mark Gross, now director of the ATLAS Institute. Gross, along with university colleagues organized annual exhibitions, similar to the ATLAS Expo, Weaver says.
