At the next meeting of MakePhilly, Brian Crabtree and Kelli Cain will come in to give a guest talk on adaptable, minimalist-interfaces, which they create and install right here in Philadelphia. The projects are used for games, simulations, and live music performances. They’ll talk about manufacturing and the process of working on personal projects that eventually become large, community explorations.
Geekadelphia is going to be there, because MakePhilly have something truly awesome going on. Also, I really want to learn how to make a giant one of these. Totally one of my favorite hand held games as a child.

People from all fields show up, talk, and build things together. CityPaper said that “the geeks who placed first in their middle school science fair are all grown up — and putting their brains to good, collective use,” at these MakePhilly meetings. These meetings are free to the public, but a $5 donation is suggested.
The meet will take place on Sunday, December 16th, at the University of the Arts in Anderson Hall (4th Floor).
