SiliCon with Adam Savage

Adam Savage is co-producer of SiliCon. It's more than your typical comic book convention. There’s pop culture, with a twist of innovation. He's is creating a space for makers to come together and create costumes, props, and models. Follow Adam on his website Tested.com

“To me, I define ‘making’ as anytime you reach out from your point of view and make something that didn’t exist.”
Adam Savage
