I'm in the final edit stage of a video of interviews of some fellow Autodesk Portland office employees for something fun and unique. When we say Make Anything as a tagline of Autodesk, we embody that with our employees. We moved into this renovated Portland building downtown last April, and some employees realized we needed something fun and unique in our game room area. It was an organic grassroots volunteer project, but a group of employees decided “hey, lets make our own arcade console.” They used Autodesk products including generative design for the design, 3D printed some parts, programmed an Arduino, installed some LED lights, painted, and then using one employees home shop, they built an amazing arcade game that many employees and visitors love to play in the office. It is a remarkable story of create employees taking the “Make Anything” quite literally and made an arcade.
Stay tuned for this story and video of this project and the back story from the employees. Make Anything!
I have another fun project with our Portland office that I could use some help on. Do you live in the Portland region, and have a pet goat we could pamper for an afternoon and place a GoPro camera on it? email me
