Cool Hunting Video Presents: Maker Faire 2007: Part One by Cool Hunting Video
In the first of a two-part series, we visit Make magazine's second annual Maker Faire in the SF Bay Area. There we meet Dale Dougherty, the editor and publisher of Make and founder of the Maker Faire. We also learn about Art Center College for Design professor Phillip Van Allen's open source hardware and software for creating interactive objects and tools called Net Connect, that he developed in collaboration with Moto. John Dyer shows us his homemade Tesla Coil and ITP student James N. Sears explains his inspirations for Orb and UltraOrb, 3-D displays he made using rotating LCDs.

Cool Hunting Video Presents: Nice Collective
Fashion label Nice Collective was started by self-described "nice guys" Joe Haller and Ian Hannula shortly after the two met at a club in San Francisco in 1995. Inspired by music, art, technology, performance, reptiles and spiders, science, Ian's military experience and the San Francisco scene, the two set out to create experiences for themselves and their friends. Clothing quickly materialized as a core...

Ultra Motor A2B Electric Bicycle

Built around a lightweight, fully suspended aluminum frame, the ASB can be pedaled like the average bicycle. But...

Spoke POV Kit: Custom Bike Wheel Lights
While the Pac-Man themed version of this mobile LED light show is pretty genius, the programmable kit allows for any number of other clever combos or other bitmapped images for animated self-expression on wheels. Adding safety to boot, the DIY project is not for the tech-challenged, requiring basic programming and soldering skills to create the custom images for either regular size or smaller wheels....
