Some bittersweet news: the MAKE team after many months of planning have decided to relocated from our offices in California to Easter Island (Isla de Pascua, Rapa Nui, an island in the south Pacific Ocean belonging to Chile). MAKE subscribers will not be affected, but you may receive your issues a little later starting with volume 10 — the “projects that (are) rock” issue.

We’re also changing the name of the publication to MakeMake just so it’s clear what we’re all about. We are positive that these changes will make MAKEMAKE a continually outstanding read, in print, online and made of giant stones.

We will be flying a select group of makers for a special “dinner” post in the comments if you’d like to be apart of a wonderful evening!

We could have an Easter Island Easter egg hunt, or rather, an eggegg hunthunt, just to be clear.

This is excellent. Much better than last year’s “OBEY” magazine. (though that one had great pop-culture reference points)
