Omschrijving

Jakajima and MadLab invite you to participate in this exciting Hackathon where the focus will be on creating (interactive) visualisations for any type of device (your own hacked one, TV, tablet, smartphone, Arduino, 3D printer etc.) based on the maker community in the world.

Examples of visualisations that would fulfil the purpose of ‘Visualising makers in the world’ are;

- a visualisation that shows which applications of Arduino / Rasberry Pi / Beagleboard / Beaglebone black etc. are mostly used and where,
- a visualisation that summarizes the most successful applications of Arduino / Rasberry Pi / Beagleboard / Beaglebone black etc.,
- a visualisation where most hackers are active and what their topics are!
etc.

If you are creative enough to create your own useful combination of data with awesome results and enjoy having fun with other creative people, social nerds, hardware geeks, data scientists etc. come join us for this hackathon on March 29 and March 30 2014.

Regarding datasets: you may use your own as long as you are allowed to use them!

Hard- and software: Bring your own necessary equipment, hard- and software tools. We supply some hardware tools, power and internet (and drinks and food obviously). You should bring your own 3D Printer, Arduino sets, etc.

Prize categories:
- Best Visualisation
- Best Arduino Hack
- Best 3D Printing Hack

Jury
At the end of the Hackathon a panel of experts will judge your visualisations/hacks. Jury members will be announced shortly.
