We Are All Makers
Make: is a global platform that allows Makers come together to learn, share, make, and collaborate. The launch of Make: magazine in 2005, followed by Maker Faire in 2006, jumpstarted a worldwide Maker Movement which is transforming innovation, culture, and education. The publisher of the popular "Getting Started With" and "Learning By Discovery" book series, Make: editorial content can be found online at makezine.com, its e-commerce at makershed.com, and its online learning for kids at makercamp.com.

Join us for a conversation with Bill Hammack, who teaches engineering at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is also well-known for his EngineerGuy videos on YouTube. https://lnkd.in/esrKjh95. Bill is the author of "The Things We Make: The Unknown History of Invention from Catherdrals to Soda Cans," which was published in 2023. (https://lnkd.in/er2DWGnH) In his book, Bill shares the details of the powerful, revolutionary and, surprisingly, little known engineering method that has influenced readers lives intimately, deeply, and lastingly. The book features human stories, perception-changing histories of invention, and accessible explanations of technology. These readable, bite-sized stories reveal a panorama of human creativity across millennia and continents, which readers can consume in a single sitting of fifteen or thirty minutes. They hear of technologies invisible to them, yet which profoundly affect their lives. The book argues that engineering is distinct from science -- and that in no way is engineering "applied science" because the purpose of the engineering method is to solve problems before we have full scientific understanding. The results of engineering are not the products of science. The scientific method creates knowledge; the engineering method creates solutions. The products of engineers arise from a method, almost a mindset, that is rarely articulated, almost invisible, yet is universal across cultures and throughout history—no society has survived without some form of the engineering method.
