Electron Club Talk

Electron Club - Glasgow

It is come time since, but I gave a talk at the Electron Club Open Day a couple of weeks back.

The notes are here.

It was good, enjoyed meeting some like minded folk (in the open source sense), including Edinburgh's chapter of Dorkbot, who seem to be on a SpokePOV related persistence-of-vision bender at the moment, and the ever-evolving Glasgow Greenmap. Simon Yuill also introduced us to Floss manuals, which looks like a great exercise in product design to me.

GWRP GSA

The Glasgow Wood Recycling Project are working with GSA students, (again sadly just Product Design students, rather than Product Design Engineers) on product development. They have a blog up, with links to their research (excellent) and concepts (generally good).

cube cola

An open source cola from Bristol, currently being made by Cube Microplex cinema, which sounds like a great idea. Maybe the GFT or Grosvenor, or G12 cinemas could follow suit?
