Citizen Engineer was started in the summer of 2008 as something of a how to show aimed at those above a beginner level. The show is pioneered by Limor Fried and Phillip Torrone of Make Magazine fame. There was one episode produced at the show’s inception, and none since. Despite this infrequency however, there has recently been a little stirring on the official website.
