Two Hands Project visit
I had a very surreal experience this evening at Harford Hackerspace, where I am a member. Two sleep-deprived, malnourished, weary travelers and one energetic wind-up-toy of a man from the Two Hands Project stopped by to interview us about Hackerspaces. The Two Hands Project is a documentary film effort focused on the Hackerspace phenomenon and trying to record the history and direction of the now dozens of spaces across North America and the world. Quite an undertaking, but worth the effort in my opinion. Bringing attention to the community education potential of Hackerspaces can’t be a bad thing, right?
Being interviewed always creeps me out as I usually feel that no one but myself could possibly be interested in anything I do. Plus, no matter how much I talk about myself everyday, it is still awkward to talk about yourself when prompted. There is something unnatural to me about people wanting to know what I do and why I do it, probably because I often cannot answer those questions myself.
Bilal, Jordan and Paul: Thanks for the surreal interruption to my otherwise run-of-the-mill Tuesday evening.
