Yet another great quote from Bret Victor in his back-to-the-future talk, “The Future of Programming”:
“The most dangerous thought you can have as a creative person is to think that you know what you’re doing. Because once you think you know what you’re doing you stop looking around for other ways of doing things. And you stop being able to see other ways of doing things. You become blind.”
(the quote starts around 31:20)
Great quote from bunnie about Makers:
The Maker movement, I think, is less about developing products, and more about developing people. It’s about helping people realize that technology is something man-made, and because of this, every person has the power to control it: it just takes some knowledge. There is no magic in technology. Another way to look at it is, we can all be magicians with a little training.
That comes from an interview bunnie did with CSDN.net, which you can read here: http://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?p=3234
