Hi all! I’m Ozum. I am a member since January. As some of you know, I am doing a MRes/PhD at UCL School of Management- Organizations and Innovation. In my research, I am broadly interested in creativity and experience of creative workers. Having met many enthusiastic makers and creators in this community inspired me to conduct a research on maker culture and makerspaces for my first year project, which I need to hand in in 2 months 
. I have already discussed my research interest with some of you (@cibelesoaresalvareng , @Dermot, @SquareFeet ). Thanks to their encouragement, I am posting the details to see if you would be interested in helping me.
I assume that being a member of this community, you all like making and interested in talking about it 
. I would be delighted to speak with you about your experiences as a maker and with makerspace. I would like to hear the stories about how you became a member, the projects you are working on, the things you have learned in makerspace etc. Please let me know if you are free to talk with me. I expect the interviews to take around 30mins to 1 hour depending on how talkative you are 
. I am quite flexible in the following 3-4 weeks. Just drop a message when you are available.
As a part of the project, I also need to explain what is unique/interesting/valuable about making and makerspaces? I would really appreciate your thoughts and comments on this issue. Even if you don’t have time to talk with me in person, could you drop a few lines about what bring you to the makerspace, and what is the importance of making/makerspace to you?
I really appreciate your help 
.
Please let me know if you want to hear more details about the project.
Ozum
. Sure, it sounds good to me. See you on Saturday!
