Creators Episode 10 Digital Fabrication

We talk to Eric Renn, serial entrepreneur and fitness enthusiast. We begin with his journey from Atlanta to West Seattle, his relationship with his brother, opening a CrossFit gym and pivoting to digital fabrication. Jumping head first, and acquiring a $10,000 loan, he bought a computer controlled milling machine and quickly becomes a manufacturer. Essentially becoming a producer instead of a mindless consumer. We discuss consumer interests, resources, and learning. Democratization of knowledge through digital tools. Makerspaces. Practicality for solving everyday problems. We get into advances in the medical field, living organs, prosthetics, and possibilities of breathing under water. The future with apps, driverless cars, food, and manufacturing. Ethics in relation to automation. Deep dive into current societal issues and how this technology can help. Making homes for the homeless. Infrastructure. Quality of life. Human connection. Education. Marijuana and Monsanto. We end with talking about entrepreneurship and how creating, complete immersion, learning and teaching go hand in hand. And what is all worthwhile is the dent you place into the world.
