Description:

Join the new industrial revolution, where anyone can make anything. 21st century technology and online communities are constantly dissolving the barriers to designing and creating useful real life things. At Burning Man 2010, the OSE workshop was a discussion of principals, technologies, and possibilities of open source, as well as an opportunity to connect with other geeks, makers and doers on the playa. This year the focus is on community and how we can collaborate to put all this information together and build wonderful things. Bring your stories of workshop and hackerspaces, triumphant or disastrous projects, or trying to balance open ideals with paying rent on time. Make new friends and chill out in our comfortable swamp-cooled dome.
