Do you have a brilliant app idea but you are not sure how to code it? Or do you have a smartphone and
you’re frustrated about finding York information? Are you the next Mark Zuckerburg?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, we want you to join the Second Steacie Library Dungeon
Hackfest! We need people like you to help plan. And if you don’t have time to plan, then make sure to
participate.
Last year, the Steacie Library hosted its first annual Hackfest. What is a Hackfest? If you haven’t been to
one, it is about spending the day collaborating on a particular software project, and bringing the project to
reality. Teams are usually comprised of people from different disciplines such as Computer Science and
Engineering, Fine Arts, Business, Digital Media, Health, Marketing and more.
This year’s theme is Culture and Technology in a Mobile World. The theme is about creating an app that
can be about anything, health, accessibility, gaming, organizing, chatting or create an app for York. Or use
the space to work on your own Hackfest idea.
If you have an idea, or if you want to gain experience in app development, or just want to participate in a fun
collaborative environment mark your calendar for the Annual Steacie Library Dungeon Hackfest on February
19-20th, 2014.
