Hi Matthew,
This report is filled to the brim with details, especially those that call to mind many of the subjects I learned in my project management course. The timeline you included in your report is very well detailed, along with affordable methods for implementing an audio makerspace in the library. I also appreciate the examples you have given on other audio makerspaces in libraries to help cement your proposal to the Homer Public Library. What inspired you to write such a detailed report on an audio makerspace?
Top notch reporting,
Miguel

Thanks Miguel. I really think our community could use an elaborate makerspace but I don’t think we could sustain something too big, so I thought we should start small with a recording studio. Thanks for reading my report!

Hi Matthew! Great Inspiration report! I love me some recoding and the research and through plan make this very “turn-key” and professional – I hope you get a chance to present/implement it! Weird fact from the past – there were a group of artists who used to do this exercise with casette tapes: Someone would start by recording a few minutes on a tape – spoke word, music, field recording whatever – then send it to another artist who would add to or alter for a few more minutes – and so on until the tape was filled and utterly unique. Interested in trying something like that? 🙂

@grafzepp Great idea about the shared audio creation project! I loved the band the Postal Service that was a collaboration between DNTel and Ben Gibbard by sending audio ideas back and forth in the mail.
