What
It's been a year since SkullSpace started, and it's time to have a special hackathon! We've lined up some great speakers and projects to keep you busy on a cold December day! If you've never been to SkullSpace before, or if you come every day, you're welcome to join us!
Usually what goes on is something of a social event, with people talking about all kinds of things, trying out some lock picking, playing video games, sampling bake sale delicacies and generally just having a good time. The original intent was to get the amazing SkullSpace community together to work on projects and bounce ideas around, but it has evolved from that into something of a geek social with a focus on learning something new. There are still a handful of people that come out to work on their projects and everyone is welcome to bring anything they're currently working on to show off or just hack on with others. Even if you know nothing about coding/hacking/etc don't be afraid to stop by, our members are all types of creatives from architects and programmers to graphic designers and amateur radio enthusiasts.
When and Where
December 17 is the day of our December hackathon! It will be held in our space on the 3rd floor of 125 Adelaide. We open the doors at noon, and the first talk is at 2:00. It tends to end between 6 and 8pm.
