Kano’s Kickstarter
Robert Capa’s surprising color photos, Google’s 2013 Zeitgeist, Nico Muhly’s review of Beyoncé and more
This year seemingly everybody is Kickstarting something, but there’s one project that’s caught the eye of tech bigshots around the word, including Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and Kickstarter co-founder Yancey Strickler. Kano is a DIY kit for assembling your own small computer, and its creators were looking for $100,000 in crowdfunding but walked away with $1.35 million this past week. Kano’s appealing package promises to teach amateurs how to build a computer from scratch; a valuable lesson in a world increasingly lacking knowledge about the products we have become unable to live without.
