Over the last decade in Australia there's been a huge growth in the handmade, the locally produced, the artisanal and the small scale. Is it a reaction against technology or the product of it?

Marcus Westbury investigates the very real tension between authenticity and marketing, between small scale local creativity and global big business.

We delve into the ways that the maker-culture is changing how we make, buy, share and sell things. From the DIY ingenuity of the 'makers movement' to governments using small scale makers to drive jobs & economic development.
