Data scientists and hackers in the Greater London Area! The Archives at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew invites you to explore and experiment with the historical datasets and images relating to trailblazing botanist and explorer Sir Joseph Hooker. You'll be challenged to design and prototype imaginative ways in which digital tools can be used to access these sources and provide new ways of understanding this historical data.

For the first time, Kew Gardens areofferinghistorical datasets and images relating to Joseph Hooker, inviting you to explore imaginative ways in which digitaltools can be used toexperiment withthese sources and provide new ways of understanding this historical data. Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817 – 1911) was a trailblazing botanist and explorer. Detailing plant diversity and economic botany throughout his many expeditions, he remains an influential figure to modern botanical science. The legacy of Hooker’s work can be seen throughout Kew: from the new plant specimens he introduced to Kew, as most notably seen within the Rhododendron Dell, to the dried specimens, museums objects, publications and illustrations which are housed within Kew Gardens. Many parts of these valuable collections have been digitised by the respective departments in Kew which house these collections to improve access to these resources. The challenge for this Hackathon is to use digital humanities tools to explore the Hooker related data, primarily relating to his collecting trip to India, at Kew. Participants will work together in teams to find diverse ways to connect, analyse, visualise and interpret the data, and at the end of the day will present their ideas in a ‘show and tell session’.

ManMetHacks is a student-run hackathon organised by helloHackers Soc, a hackathon society at Manchester Metropolitan University.

A two day data jam focused on improving wellbeing in Bristol.

Let's save the planet in under 48 hours! Design jam to conquer the UN Climate action goals.

XR enthusiasts -- developers, designers, researchers, and specialists in the UK! You're invited to apply to participate in the weekend-long the VIVE Developer Jam - London. If your application is accepted, you'll get to collaborate with like-minded techies to experiment and create the next generation of XR applications. Come as part of a team, or join one at the event. You'll be challenged to use VIVE hardware, including SDKs like eye/lip and hand tracking to create an innovative virtual reality project -- a game, art experiment or enterprise prototype -- that redefines how people interpret and interact with VR.
