| Adam Savage Telling Stories at Maker Faire Bay Area |
| |
| For many a Maker Faire Bay Area, Adam Savage's Sunday presentation—something of a Sunday morning sermon—is always a crowd favorite. This year was no exception. Adam delivered a funny, freewheeling, and at times touching hour-long talk about the importance of making, the idea that every act of creation is making, and the importance of teaching kids to be Makers. |

Junkyard Battle Racers Bring Video Game Boosts to Go-Kart Racing
Junkyard Battle Racers is like a real-life version of Mario Kart, complete with power-ups, speed boosts, and IR laser tag guns. Drive over one of the "power pods" scattered around the track and an IR proximity sensor built into the bottom of the kart triggers a random power-up including death beams, extra shields, and EMP blasts to knock out other racers. | |
