132Hobye tank became the buffer tank for an interactive fire cannon. All the experiments were explored by imagining and testing the possibilities they might have in a context of playful participants in the field.After many installations, it has become apparent that the materials people bring to the space serve as starting points for collaborations forming the art installations, and forming the collective in itself. In this chapter, descriptions of how Illutron came to be and of the design process of three interactive art installations will serve as a basis for understanding some of the intertwined social, technical, and artistic processes that emerge in-and maintain-the community.David Gauntlett (2011) argues for the potential of considering the creative process of making as a way to create communities that will unlock new innovative capacities. Later in this chapter, I will reflect on how Gauntlett's perspective can help us to understand the community of Illutron, on how the concrete examples can extend Gauntlett's theories with understandings of sketching in digital material, on the importance of frontrunners, on the need for a physical space, and on the qualities of a shared identity.
