Two exciting events are coming up in September – the New York Maker Faire and the 2011 Open Hardware Summit.  This year I’m fortunate to be traveling to New York for both events, and I’m looking forward to meeting other makers and OSHW enthusiasts.

I should be easy to spot, I’ll be the guy wearing a Geiger counter around his neck (and hopefully not being hassled by security).

If you’re not coming to the summit and you’re interested in seeing my open source Geiger counter in person, stop by my booth at the Maker Faire.  I’ll be doing various demonstrations and will also have kits for sale.

See you there!

The Amp Hour #43 — Audacious Arduino Arguments

Our first four-way podcast!  Listen to me, Chris, Dave, and Jeremy chat about Arduino, high altitude balloons, hackerspaces in universities, the Google ADK, and the Maker Faire Bay Area.

Kudos to Skype for enabling us to actually pull this off!

I’ll be there!  I’m showing off my Wifi Radio project on the Make: stage at 1:30PM on Saturday.

I didn’t know at the time that I was being recorded, but here’s a somewhat low quality video of the Retro Bluetooth Handset talk I gave on Sunday of the 2010 Bay Area Maker Faire.

The talk starts about 7 minutes into the video, so skip ahead unless you want to watch John Edgar Park of Make: television greet his fans.

Enjoy!

The Maker Faire Bay Area 2010 is less than two weeks away!

I’ll be giving two short talks about my Bluetooth Handset Hack over the weekend.  Look for me on stage near the Make: booth.

I would love to meet some readers of the blog.  If you spot me at the Faire, please say hello!

Update: I’ll be presenting on the Make: stage in Expo Hall at 12:30pm both days.
