Hello Bitmakers and Toronto/ GTA tech community:
We’re inviting you to the HackerNest Construct Hackathon!
HackerNest Construct? What is this sorcery, you ask?
HackerNest Construct: Mind and Motion Hackathon is a 24-hour programming competition focused on creativity and the innovative use of technology (NOT business plans, commercial viability, or monetization).
The theme?
It’s all about spiffy next-generation interface devices like neural/gesture controls, augmented reality, wearables, tablets, and all the funky stuff you see in futuristic movies.
The prizes?
Oh, just a bunch of cash, some SICK devices (i.e. Myo, Kiwi Move (an AWESOME Bitmaker alum!!), and not-even-released-yet Oculus Rift etc etc) and tons of extra giveaways. No big deal.
When?
Saturday February 22 – Sunday February 23, 2014
Where?
Ryerson DMZ (Toronto) – Yonge & Dundas – 10 Dundas Street East, Suite #502.
Why should you come (and bring all your friends)?
It’s an awesome opportunity for you + droves of hackers just like you to get your hands on cutting edge tech, work with crazy-smart people, and generally just create awesome stuff. Need we say more?
ATTN broke-as-heck students:
We feel your pain. $10 tix available to get you hacking (just be sure to bring your student ID with you!!) –> Bitmakers + Bitmaker Labs alumni included!
Sound peachy? Put your team together and…
Lots of <3,
HackerNest
