Hear Me on BBC Radio 4's Click On Programme
The BBC were out in force at the Maker Faire the other weekend, and the content they recorded is starting to make its way out into the world.
Yesterday, BBC Radio 4's Click On programme aired their report from the faire, and the interview I did with them on the Sunday was featured in two points in the show.
First off, about 3m30s in, you can hear me talk about Bubblino (whose picture also graces the Click-on programme details page)
And then there's a longer segment from the interview at around the 10m 50s mark. In it I talk about what the Mazzini project is trying to achieve and explain some of the things you can start to do with the technology.
If you missed it then you can listen to the programme again from the Click On website or download the mp3 podcast of the show instead.
Two things that didn't make it into the interview, but which might be of interest to anyone visiting from hearing about us on the BBC, are Homecamp and Howduino:
Homecamp is an unconference being held in London on Saturday 25th April, and will be full of people discussing and hacking with energy monitoring and home automation.
And Howduino is a day of hardware-hacking and learning about Arduino boards (which power both Bubblino and the Mazzini monitors) in Liverpool, taking place on Saturday 23rd May. So if you fancy getting into the maker spirit, come along.
