The Unbroken spirit of Inventor Bessie Blount

This week we take a look at Bessie Blount, who despite prejudices and hardships kept a wickedly rebellious sense of humor and saved many lives with the invention of the feeding tube.


Grace Hopper, Inventor, Computer Scientist & kickass teacher

Not only did she code like a ninja, Grace Hopper was also an amazing teacher!

Aztec Inspiration

​How did the Aztecs perceive the stars, how did they measure time and construct their calendars, and what hackerspace projects inspired by their explorations of space? 

​The prompt can inspire zines, LED projects, costumes — just about anything you can think of! And above all something to distract us from the stress of election results this week 🙂
