So, I just attended Colleen Morgan‘s first ThreadTech workshop, which was an introduction to sewing with LED lights. First of all, it was awesome. I came away with a basic knowledge of how electronics works, and a funky new garment all in the space of a couple of hours. Colleen started the workshop by showing [...]

Everyone loves something free, and that is exactly what GIMP is.
It’s been an exciting few weeks- the “top secret” information that I’m a Catalyst is now out, the launch night was a roaring success, and The Edge space is gradually building a following of regular users. Word is spreading, though so far we don’t need bouncers at the front door, and that’s a relief. Ok, [...]
