MAKING IS CARING

Elda Webb and The Curious Design.Network

Why am I here?

Today

I'm

here to

MAKE

a

change

Today is the result of a lot of

connections making sense for the first

time.

Today I'm here to give a another step in

my MAKER journey.

We could all be MAKERS!

This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have.

Charles Osgood “The Responsibility Poem.”

Because I AM Somebody

We can pin point what's not working, in a very

consistent and efficient way. Is incredible how

good we are at that!

This is the a step in the MAKER journey.

Singapore could be a MAKER city!

How can WE MAKE Singapore become a MAKER

city?

Let’s move from just pointing out what is not

working to actually DOING something about it.

Somebody that SEES is

an issue.

Somebody that CARES

about the issue.

Somebody that

WANTS to DO

something about it.

If you are here today

you are ready to start

your journey.

Who can be a MAKER How do I become a MAKER

Being a maker requires you to do a lot of little

steps, specially at the beginning.

You can take big steps at times, or even go

backwards at some point.

That's fine, as long as you keep going.

Anything

Make something today.

What drives MAKERS to keep going?

CARE

Becoming a MAKER takes time, sweat, tears,

frustration, joys, resources, networking, talking,

drawing, writing, thinking and a lots more.

When you finish making something for

somebody, it will give you the greatest of

feelings.

I MADE a difference.

Start MAKING and MAKE a Change,

because MAKING is Caring.
