3/29/11 WSJ: Hacker Dojo
Earlier this month I photographed Jay Liew, a software engineer, who recently quit his job at a software security company so he could pursue his own start-up interests. Not surprisingly, he decided to move from San Diego to the Silicon Valley and one of the main reasons he made the move was because of the Hacker Dojo. The Dojo is a large and inviting tech community space that prides itself on being more than desks for rent. It’s more akin to a familial style start up incubator and computer-engineer haven. The Dojo had a feeling somewhere between fun-house and science lab, which in my opinion, is perfect for nurturing an imaginative and productive work environment. For example, one member rigged a cowbell labeled button into the wall that, when pushed, actually rings a cowbell attached to the ceiling. 3-D printers sit in one corner, and in another, gadgets and tools and a robotic spider that is in the process of being put together. If you’re living near the Bay Area Peninsula and ever find yourself needing to take tech classes or use community office space, you should definitely stop in and check the place out.

An old photograph from 2006 I recently rediscovered. It was taken while I was working on a project about the Yountville Veterans Home.
