Collection: A Bright Idea

A Bright Idea is a documentary which explores innovation, inspiration, and the intersection of art and technology, as seen through the “makerspace” community of artists, designers, musicians, crafters and programmers at the Idea Fab Labs in Chico, CA. The film sheds light on a thriving local scene, which, although underground in it’s own town, attracts multi-talented visual artists from around the world to its Tech-Art Incubator Program. While the central focus of the film remains in Chico, future possibilities open through the Idea Fab Labs’ expansion to the newest nodal point in Santa Cruz, CA. Follow the journey of local makers and the rising global phenomenon of makerspace culture.
