+# Introduction
+A few weeks ago I presented my [musical floppy drives](https://jrtechs.net/projects/musical-floppy-drive-build-log)
+at the [Rochester Maker Faire](https://rochester.makerfaire.com/) with [RITlug](https://ritlug.com/). 
+Wow, that sentence had a total of three links-- you should check them out:) This post is a 
+quick recap of the event and a project update for my Musical floppy drive project. For those of you who 
+don't know, Maker Faires are community gatherings where people "celebrate arts, crafts, engineering, science projects and the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) mindset".
+
+# Project Background
+
+Musical floppy drives are floppy drives wired to an Arduino to play music. I initially started with two floppy drives;
+however, that grew to 8 drives very fast.

+
+I currently have 10 floppy drives stacked together in a tower like structure so that it is easier to take to places
+like the Maker Faire and Imagine RIT.

+
+# Future Project Upgrades
+
+Although the 10 floppy drives are quite loud in a single room, people typically found it difficult to hear at the
+Maker Faire. This was largely due to the noisiness of the hundreds of people at the convention center. To fix this
+in the future I want to bring a small amplifier for the floppy drives. 
+
+The second improvement which I plan on making is creating some form of web application where people can 
+request music for the floppy drives to play.
+
+# Cool Projects at the Maker Faire
+
+Although there were a ton of really cool projects at the Maker Faire, I did not have the time to spend a lot of
+time exploring the faire and taking pictures of everything. However, I want to share two really cool projects
+that I saw at the Maker Faire. 
+
+## HatChan
+
+![HatChan](media/makerFaire/20181117_095844.jpg)
+
+This is a project that one person is calling HatChan. This is a hat equipped with a ton of LED lights, and 
+a fully functioning wireless access point. When you connect to his access point, the captcha portal takes you
+to a 4chan esk site where you can upload pictures -- mostly memes.
+
+## 8-bit Computer
+

+
+This one person brought a home made 8-bit computer to the Maker Faire. What I find the most impressive
+about this project was that the person who made it is only a sophomore in high school.
