We have something to celebrate! Today, three years ago, we started off with our vague concept of 'het Collectief'. So instead of just saying so, we want to provide you a quick overview of what this rollercoasterride entailed for us. It was a blast, but there is much more to come!

We've started off in 2012 after a few inspiring cups of coffee with the idea that if we combine the awesome individual talents that surround us in , we can achieve anything beyond imagination. We can build a team to change the world for the better. Now, three years after, we've got some amazing business growing in Asia, we started an amazing exhibition series, we've developed some ass-kicking software packages and we recently opened our own bar and we've taking the initiative to start a makerspace in Delft as well.

We're proud of what we did and the way we did it. Now, after three years of experimenting, we're almost warmed up and ready for the next challenges. If you want to join in and you have some great world changing ideas, let us know!

We're celebrating at Barbaar tonight, so maybe we'll even buy you a drink :-)

Yesterday we had an epic kickstart of our new initiative; Maakbaar. A new community in for makers, tinkerers, builders or any name you want to give these bright pro-active talents who want to change the world for the better.

Maakbaar is a community driven non-profit stepping stone for awesome epic bizar out-of-this-world ideas. It's a laboratory with 3d printers, electronics and all sorts of gear you'll need to make your prototype. It's an inspiring lecture and workshop series organized by us all to provide knowledge where we need it. It's a meeting ground to find your fellow comrades and be inspired by those around you. It's what you need to bring your ideas to reality.

Hereby an open call to join this fantastic club of bright minds. Join us! Check www.maakbaar.org for more information!

TU Delft is proud, so are we!

Framing for freedom
After stimulating experiences in amateur drama, Hakim Sugito decided he would like to try scripting and shooting a film. He soon found out that setting up shot for shot and making smooth camera movements made filming a slow, cumbersome and expensive enterprise. What if you could make a stabilizing platform that could do still shots, tracks and pans with equal ease? You could simply do away with expensive tripods, steadycams or a dolly on tracks. He set out to develop such a stabilizing frame called the Waltz with a couple of creative engineers and designers working together in the Delft-based Het Collectief.
