Adam Savage delivered a speech entitled "Why We Make" in the attempt to pin down the reason why makers do what they do, and starts off by describing his first creation — a Millennium Falcon he made in his mother's closet when he was a boy. Savage goes on to talk about the false dichotomy between culture and pop culture, and how educators and industry professionals shouldn't delineate between recreating the objects of fiction and creating something new. He hopes that a current generation of youths will be inspired create whatever it is they find interesting, and points out that math, science, and art are all necessary ingredients for creative work. Personally, I have never had the honor to experience anything like what Adam Savage describes
