Abstract
Drawing from over 50 interviews with diverse individuals who identify as makers we explored ways that communities were shaped the physical or online structures they occupy and a shared understanding of behaviors within the community. We identified two key dimensions to maker communities --- fluid and structured, and --- regulated and unregulated. We looked at these dimensions and how they impacted collaboration and learning, and togetherness in various maker communities.
