Spent some time with Matt Westervelt, of Seattle Wireless fame, at his new business venture called Metrix Create:Space on Capital Hill in Seattle

It’s a hard business model to describe, but here goes:

If you are a Generation X’er its like Craftmart for Generation Y

If you are a Baby Boomer it’s like going to the guy with all the tools, parts, and resources to work on your car or home

Put another way, it’s a place to drop in with your “Do it yourself” project for 21st century technologies and art.

Now to the MRI part, Matt has a MakerBot CupCake set up so you can drop in with your design and make a small prototype. So like most folks in Seattle, someone took a moment to turn the DVD of his head MRI and turn it into a file for the Makerbot.

And Viola, tiny skull from the MRI of your head!

I figure, in the not to distant future, you will be able to drop in to Matt’s place to build your designer molecule or virus for life extension or cognitive brain upgrades. You should be able to hack yourself, right?
