For the past two years, Cemetech has presented a strong showing at World Maker Faire in New York City. In 2012, we presented six exhibits about graphing calculator hacking and programming, including demonstrations of calculator networking, calculator internet access, calculator music players, and hardware mods. We let visitors test out games and programs on TI-84 Plus Silver Edition and Casio Prizm graphing calculators, and qazz42 and mreksm helped me spread the word about the educational value of graphing calculator programming and hacking. We reprised our exhibit at World Maker Faire 2013, where we had more calculators, more demos, more interactive displays, and qazz42, elfprince13, and geekboy1011 helping me spread the word about programming and DIY electronics with graphing calculators.

September 20 and 21, 2014, we will be returning to Flushing Meadows in New York City to participate in our third World Maker Faire. A growing contingent of Cemetech members is scheduled to join us to show off graphing calculator programming and hacking, and we have already begun planning our exhibits and demos for the Faire. If you're interested in helping us to plan what to show or even in attending (although we may not have space behind the table), feel free to weigh in in the attached topic. Planning to stop by as a Faire visitor? We hope you'll come to our table and say hello.
