The workshop

Projects

Tools, sites and experiments — including the ones that never shipped, because that's part of the record. Each entry links to its source where there is one — the rest say why there isn't. Software lives on the personal account; the open-hardware projects live in the Divergent Futures organisation.

This page lists everything. Each channel also has its own slice: Humans in Space · Living on the Spectrum · Cosmos

Synapse

Feed it an exhibitor list from a maker event and it produces a self-contained map of who is working on what, and where those things are quietly converging.
