Saturday Hack-A-Thon (and Scratch day).
Ruben Duque
It's time for another HackMiami Hack-a-Thon.... Come join us to work
on your project, hack away at something, read, or just hang out.
I would also like to mention that this Saturday is Scratch day.
Scratch is a project from the MIT Media Lab, a programming
language/language (built on top of squeak) that makes it easy to
create interactive stories, games, animation, etc.. It was designed to
get kids involved in programming and to teach them the fundamental
ideas behind computation and mathematics while allowing them to play
around and work creatively. For more information, visit
scratch.mit.edu
There will be a Scratch Day at FIU and we are welcome to join and
participate that day. There will be a talk about the Scratch language,
some demos, and a chance to play around with it as well.
Alternatively, there *may* be some talk of other tools that somehow
relate to the aim and goals of Scratch, squeak, oF, PD, Processing may
be among them.
The details:
WHEN: Saturday, May 16th, 2009
TIME: 1:00 - 6:00 PM
WHERE: FIU University Park Campus, ECS 280. (In case 280 is
closed/empty, there will be a notice detailing our whereabouts)
Hope to see you there.
