Editor's Choice Awards at Bay Area Maker Faire

Three Editor's Choice awards were awarded to NWMEDIA 203: Critical Making projects at this year's Bay Area Maker Faire. my.Flow (with team members Katie Chen, Amanda Brief, Drake Myers, Madeeha Ghori, and Tomas Vega) showcased their smart tampon that alerts users if their sanitary applications are about to leak, eliminating embarrassing period situations. SKRT (created by team members Andrew Fang, Andrea Deng, Sumer Mohammed, Brian Ly, and Tessira Crawford) critiqued the personal bubble by a sensor driven that skirt that shifts based on the proximity of others. Congratulations Eric Paulos and the whole class of Critical Making. You made BCNM proud!
