A reminder that the CFP is still up for @AdasList Conf which I'm producing this year. If you identify as a woman, come and give a talk, run a workshop, whatever.
Tell ALL YOUR FRIENDS.

There might not be a #Woodstock50 but I'm celebrating by asking women to help me reedit The Whole Earth Catalog for today.
1. Pick a word
2. Submit a related link, book, business you'd like a young woman today to read about.
3. RT.

As #makingitconf revealed there may be a Venn Diagram of Makers in the UK where they are obvs not one homegenous blob. But to my mind there are lots of things in common, and the big one is perceived value of the craft & product and how we raise that awareness

On our way to our first event cutting up donated tubs at @CANWaterloo ✂️✂️✂️ so that we can turn them into piranha clamps!
Grateful for your help and support and really interested to hear about your plastic passions🌟

Sadly I can’t make it to this… but @makingitconf folks may be interested in The Prepared’s part time support role - bit.ly/2yqOp4p (best manufacturing newsletter I know)
Excited to be organising a conference on #makers, scaling up, making it (physically), making it (happen), and making it (a success) #makingitconf with @iotwatch. Held at @DoESLiverpool on October 12th 2018. Tickets at makingitconf.com/tickets/

Really nice reflections on Friday's @Makingitconf @DoESLiverpool by @iotwatch Especially like the idea that the term 'maker' could be sub categorised in the future medium.com/@iotwatch/making-…

It was, thanks! Nice to get the reminder of the 80s parallels that @smithadrianpaul had unearthed, and your global perspective on the overlapping communities #makingitconf

Ditto. Some great conversations too - loved the satchel story. #makingitconf – at Liverpool, England
Learning about @_museuminabox at #makingitconf. Good to finally visit @DoESLiverpool, as the people from there have always been lovely.

Ambition after yesterday @DoESLiverpool #makingitconf is to look at how we can learn from @SparkPenkethand embed MakerEd #STEAM at a high school level in Leeds - is this isomething you think is possible @cgarside?

Learning about Da Vinci Resolve today as I play with the video we captured @makingitconf. Love this tool!
Knitting and weaving partnerships between small communities and larger ones as well as cultural organisations is a possible model for the future of #making
How do we learn to garden our local ecologies.
#makingitconf
Closing remarks by @amcewen and our fantastic MC @Freerange_Inc
We need to have a culture of blowing up and not selling out and celebrate success stories in #making more.
