About

Growing up tinkering in his father's workshop, Robin Hooker always had a space to reimagine the world -- to modulate, mashup, remix and repair things. As an adult, he realized not everyone has access to a space where they can safely experiment. Hooker argues for democratizing access to public, shared workshops, commonly called "makerspaces," that provide room for the collision of ideas; where inventors and hobbyists alike can collaborate, accelerate innovation and build community with magical results.
