Our experiment.com project received a 7 day extension! Please share out & consider supporting a Maui soil fire toxin bioremediation program empowering local teens to co-design curriculum rooted in local knowledge & using Hawai'i grown materials. experiment.com/projects/maui…

Summer Campers designed & built an igloo that was inflated using a box fan they were able to get inside once inflated. A wonderful engineering project created by artist Amy Brown for our Inflatable Worlds camp week. #Engineering #DesignThinking #STEAM #Arts – at San Jose, CA

Solar bot made of Ti leaf, Norfolk Island Pine, paper cup, pager motor & solar panel. Mahalo @purple_maia for supporting community workshops. Mahalo @ryanejenkins for sharing your solar tinkering journeys & @A4YA_org for our past wkshps informing this new one

Oh, we did a similar solar light remix & reuse in @A4YA_org camp in "Design Your World camp weeks"! artanddesigncamp.weebly.com/ starting in 2015. Teens imagined both public spaces and their dream bedrooms with solar components hacked out of lawn lights. Awesome journeys

Join me as I recount my experience during 4 artists' residencies in the Mojave desert, California, where I had the opportunity to explore our current predicament through a series of art installations, one at a time. @mahbglobal #artistresidency mahb.stanford.edu/blog/refle…

Upcoming Floating Kīpuka wkshps in Nest garage makerspace will include locally collected Pele's hair moss & limu. Clear LEGO connectors can elevate pieces above & below a suspended LEGO build plane & facilitate dreaming of sustainable systems from ridge to reef.

Grateful for KMI Thinktank scholarship & journeys ahead!
@malama: "Together with the @purple_maia and the University of Hawaiʻi Office of Indigenous Innovation [@uhmanoa], they will revolutionize how we approach design, infusing equity and cultural grounding into our creations."

I have a gofundme for a small community bio/makerspace. Hawai'i has no community makerspaces or community biolabs! Let's change that & start imagining a range of accessible spaces for tinkering & dreaming sustainable futures driven by local perspetives!

I'm raising money to build a Community Lab/Makerspace in Hawaii! gofund.me/6910cedf Help me grow the seeds of a much needed accessible community lab/makerspace in a State where there are none! #biomaking #biodesign
