By Elmine Wijnia | Published: February 22, 2010

By Elmine Wijnia | Published: February 10, 2010
My goal in the next two months is to create a documentary on the Dutch Fab Lab scene, which will be shown in some form at SHiFT in April. It is a bit of a wild idea, but it’s an excellent way for me to practice my skills on creating a slightly longer film involving [...]

  • About this blog


    This is my personal blog which I started in 2003. At first it was called Communigations, a variation on Communicative Investigations. The blog transformed itself more into a personal investigation than being a blog on communication and therefore needed a new name.
