Autism Ideation & Hackathon
28 Apr - 09:30 AM
London, United Kingdom
CALLING ALL CURIOUS MINDS...
Interested in tech for good? Have ideas on how digital solutions could support those impacted by autism? Autistic yourself or just want to give something back? Love problem solving and finding creative solutions to interesting problems? Come and join us at Microsoft’s brand new Reactor and spend the weekend finding amazing solutions to four core challenges.
Never been to a hackathon? Not a developer? Don’t really know anything about autism? It really doesn’t matter! We believe that the best solutions come from bringing diverse groups of people together, so if you’re interested please come along and be part of exploring this exciting area.
On the diversity point, if please let us know if there's anything you need. There's lots of information below on the agenda for the weekend and on the venue (all very accessible), but if there's anything else, from equipment, to dietary requirements, please just drop us a note.
THE CHALLENGES
CHALLENGE 1: Concentration - how can we help autistic children to focus their attention?
Autistic children can find it particularly hard to concentrate on activities that don’t interest them – for example, tasks that involve shared attention (like reading a book with a parent or teacher), turn-taking games, or even walking safely across the road. They may also find it hard to switch attention between different stimuli or demands. Conversely, they often have the ability to focus intently and for prolonged periods on activities that do interest them - for example, a child who enjoys Minecraft might become totally absorbed in extending their world for hours at a time. Therefore, how can we ensure that the tasks we are expecting autistic children to work on are meaningful, relevant and important for their quality of life? How can we make acquiring necessary life skills as engaging for autistic minds as possible? And how can we harness autistic superfocus, for the benefit of the child and others?
CHALLENGE 2: Emotional cues - how can we help autistic children and adults to recognise emotional cues in near-real time?
Autistic people often have trouble identifying and responding to other people’s emotions in a ‘neurotypical’ way. Their approach may be unconventional and appear one-sided. This reflects their difficulty with ‘cognitive empathy’ – the ability to read facial expressions, tone of voice and other non-verbal cues in the subtle, fast-moving and sophisticated way that is expected. They may appear insensitive or unusual as a result, despite often having a strong instinctive sense of how others are feeling (‘affective empathy’). Their neurotypical communication partners also find it hard to empathise with the autistic person’s experience and style of communication. This can lead to confusion and misunderstanding on both sides. This is known as the ‘double empathy’ problem. Therefore, how can we help autistic and non-autistic people to bridge their communication gaps?
CHALLENGE 3: Anxiety - how can we help autistic children and adults to manage their anxiety?
Anxiety is a real issue for many autistic individuals. It can occur for a range of reasons - unexpected changes, new social situations, sensory processing issues, among others. Autistic people vary in their ability to cope with anxiety. Sometimes it is possible to remove triggers and therefore reduce anxiety; at other times anxiety can lead to a variety of psychological and physical symptoms (e.g. difficulty concentrating, thinking persistently about the worst outcome, difficulty sleeping, meltdowns, shutdowns or regressions, physical pain and exhaustion). Therefore, how can we help autistic people to manage situations in a way that gives them control over their anxiety and that ultimately improves their well-being?
CHALLENGE 4: Sleep - how can we help autistic children to sleep better?
Many people have sleep issues but for autistic children, sleeping is often particularly problematic. Irregular and insufficient sleep can result in daytime sleepiness, learning problems and behavioural issues such as hyperactivity, inattentiveness and behaviour that concerns their parents and carers - not to mention the indirect impact on the sleep of other family members. Therefore, how can we help autistic children to establish healthy sleep patterns, including going to sleep, staying asleep, waking at an appropriate time, and remaining alert during the day?

Break into the Blockchain space! Hands-on Blockchain Developer Workshop.
21 Apr - 10:00 AM
Strand, United Kingdom
This event is brought to you by The Blockchain Connector and King’s College London Blockchain Society. Due to popular demand and positive feedback from our students we are running a series of Blockchain developer workshops in London. This will be our 14th developer workshops so far in London plus one in Zug, Switzerland. We have trained over 250+ developers to date since Jan 2017, our students have gone on to work as a Blockchain Developer and others have set up their own Blockchain start-up.
Join our two-day Blockchain Developer hands-on workshop and be at the very forefront of this new technology. Our workshop consists of topics that all future Blockchain Developers must know and we incorporate plenty of hands-on development sessions. To help our students further, we provide one month on-line support through our dedicated private on-line channel. Our goal is to help regular Software Developers become Blockchain Developers. This workshop is also available on-site for start-ups and corporates at your desired location during the weekday and weekends.
Day 1
Intro to Blockchains, Bitcoin and Byzantine Fault Tolerant Networks
Intro to Ethereum and Smart Contracts
Hands-on development on Ethereum Solidity and Smart Contracts
Day 2
Smart Contracts Security and Ethereum Internals - Cryptography, Consensus, EVM, Privacy plus more
Smart Contracts Design and Best Practices
What to know as a Blockchain Developer plus more
Hands-on development on Ethereum Solidity and Smart Contracts
This workshop comes with one month of continued on-line support via our own dedicated Gitter channel.
After the workshop, we hope our students will continue coding, learning and exploring the Ethereum platform, and in good time, we hope our students will have the opportunity to work professionally in the Blockchain space. With this in mind, to help our students succeed, we are providing a dedicated Gitter channel after the workshop where our students have up to a month to ask further questions in relation to Ethereum, smart contracts etc.
Recommended development experience
Minimum of 6 months development experience is required. If you are a student and would like to attend, you must come from a Computer Science and Software Engineering background.
We have a great line up of trainers that will help you break into the Blockchain space.
Matthew Di Ferrante
Matthew is a Software Engineer with a passion for Information Security, Cryptography, and Distributed Networks. He has worked in many different areas, from hardware, embedded and kernel programming, to data mining, analytics, and network / systems programming. He first started learning programming at 12 years old, and is completely self taught, both on the practical side of programming, and on the theoretical side of computer science, mathematics, and cryptography. Matthew was first exposed to Bitcoin in late 2010 due to his interest in information security, as Bitcoin was first mainly used on darknets/Silk Road, and got fully involved in the Blockchain space around the time Ethereum started to exist - beginning his foray while living with Vitalik Buterin and long time friend Vlad Zamfir (Creator of Ethereum's Casper Protocol) in London for a few months.
Matthew currently works as a Technical Lead at Clearmatics developing Blockchain Technology for financial use cases, a member of the Ethereum Foundation Security Team and FounderlLead auditor at Zero Knowledge Labs focusing on smart contracts security auditing.
In his free time, Matthew works on personal hardware projects, gives Information Security and Blockchain related talks at various events, and organise one of the largest monthly Information Security events in the North-West. Matthew’s design for a Secure Oracles Reputation System on Ethereum recently won first place for Smart Contract Security at the Thomson Reuters HackETHon.
Matthew will be introducing developers to the way the Blockchain works technically, and what its potential applications could be. He will cover the workings and history of the Bitcoin Blockchain, as well as Ethereum and its concept of smart contracts that allow Turing complete code to execute on a virtual machine on the Blockchain.
Matthew will also talk about Smart Contracts Security and Ethereum Internals. He will discuss the most important areas to know as a Blockchain Developer. Matthew will hold a Q&A session after each topic.
Nick Johnson
Nick Johnson is a Senior Software Engineer and has been working in the software engineering space for the past 16 years. Nick is currently working as a Software Engineer for the Ethereum Foundation and prior to this, he worked at Google for a number of years.
He brings with him a wealth of knowledge and expertise in Solidity that he loves to share and will be teaching how to write and develop smart contracts during the hands-on development session, and will give students the opportunity to ask questions in relation to the Ethereum platform.
Laurence Kirk
After a successful career writing low latency financial applications in the City of London, Laurence was captivated by the potential of Blockchain Technology, and in particular smart contracts.
Two years ago, Laurence moved to Oxford and set up Extropy.io, a consultancy working with start-ups in the UK and overseas, developing applications on the Ethereum platform. He brings with him a wealth of real world experience that he loves to share with those new to this area.
Laurence hold a Physics degree from Durham University, and currently taking his MSc in Software Engineering at Oxford University. In addition to giving talks, mentoring at hackathons, and running groups about Blockchain Technology, Laurence also organise Artificial Intelligence and Data Science groups in Oxford.
During the workshop, Laurence will be teaching Solidity (an object-oriented programming language for writing smart contracts) from the simplest smart contract up to interacting with a web application. The focus is very much the practical techniques that are needed when developing on Ethereum. The sessions will be very hands on, encouraging students to practice and explore Ethereum and raise any questions students might have regarding the Ethereum platform.

Focus Inside: ethical tech panel
19 Apr - 06:30 PM
London, United Kingdom
Ethical tech panel:
How can we design tech to help us be better humans?
Tech "hacking" our brains has become a hot topic. Last year, two former Facebook executives publicly accused the social network in manipulating and destroying our society.
Designers are responsible for how millions of people will behave on a daily basis. Could we design technology in a more sustainable, mindful way to make us better people, and not steal human time and attention? Join the panel of experts to talk about ethics of tech, as part of Focus Inside.
Focus Inside is a unique pop-up event that explores our relationships with our devices and how they are changing us. The project is supported by Westminster Council and Create Church Street Fund and is part of Focus Inside mindful tech festival (see more info and full program at www.focus-inside.com).
Program:
1. presentation of the results of ethical tech hackathon
2. 5-minute exercise to get you out of the mind and into your body by Linzy Nakorn, BitterSuite
3. panel on ethical tech. Should we consider ethics when we design technology? How can we change business models, so that designers are not incentivized to hunt for our attention?
Panelists are:
Aleksandra Melnikova, experience design director, Radley Yeldar and Bill Tribble, lead UX designer, General Assembly instructor - presenting results of hackathon
David Asfaha, data scientist, Capgemini - Is data becoming "weaponized"?
Silja Litvin, Psychologist and Founder of PsycApps, Digital Mental Health - Mental health and technology
Adam Smith, senior technologist in fintech sector - Inherent bias in AI
Linzy Nakorn, performer, producer and choreographer, BitterSuite - How tech is impacting the Body's natural instincts
Focus Inside: An ethical tech design hackathon
19 Apr - 11:00 AM
London, United Kingdom
Focus Inside: An ethical tech design hackathon how we use our devices.
When: Thursday, 19 April 2018, 11.00am - 6.00 pm, followed by a panel discussion
Where: 35-37 Church Street NW8 8ES London (nearest tube: Edgware Road, Marylebone)
Designing lives of future generations
Idea:
Focus Inside is a unique pop-up event that explores our relationships with our devices and how they are changing us. As part of it, we are organizing a hackathon about how and what we design to make a positive impact.
It’s our phone, not our partner or children, that we touch first thing when we wake up and the last thing before going to sleep. We are becoming ever dependent on technology, but does it make us better humans? Do our smart devices make us smarter? With opportunities to connect with anyone, did we become more compassionate and attentive to others? With the abundance of information at our fingertips, are we more knowledgeable?
Designers are responsible for how millions of people will behave on a daily basis. The boundary between a useful service and an addictive, time consuming black hole, is very fragile. Lately we’ve seen this responsibility often abused, when users are encouraged to stay online longer hours and mindlessly click on links and videos.
We would like to see technology designed in a more sustainable, mindful way. So that instead of making a user addicted, it empowers her. Could we use design to make us better people, and not steal human time and attention? Could we find a suitable business model?
Some of the questions we want to find answers to during this hackathon are:
- How could we have more tech to help people get back to real lives, not lose their time and attention online?
- What could new business models in the economy of distraction look like?
- How can we redefine KPIs, if we don’t design anymore for time spent online?
- What does a balanced use of devices look like from a designer viewpoint? What should and shouldn’t we optimize for?
The project is supported by Westminster Council and Create Church Street Fund and is part of Focus Inside mindful tech festival (more info at www.focus-inside.com).
Are you feeling passionate about changing how our relationships with technology redefine our lives? Are you concerned about its impact on others? Do you think that it could help us be more human? Do you have background in design, arts, programming, project or product management, online business and advertising, or just have some fresh ideas about how this could be done?
Then we’d love to see you at the hackathon!
It’s a unique opportunity to work with like-minded passionate people and create something that can truly enable change. Best ideas will be featured on www.consciously-digital.com website and in the national press.
