'My Object Stories' Hackathon

Interested in hacking, making or coding things?

Interested in the stories that objects can tell us about everyday life?

Join us on Saturday 14th November 2015 for the 'My Object Stories' Hackathon!

We want you to help us make an interactive digital archive of young people’s everyday objects and the stories behind them. Working with a team of expert hackers and archivists, you’ll get the chance to help design and make something that has never been built before!

To take part you need:

• To be aged 13-16 years

• To have an object that you’re comfortable sharing the story of on the day (you’ll be able to take it home with you afterwards!)

• To be prepared to help design and build an interactive archive of young people’s everyday objects. No previous technical experience is required, you just need to be willing to work as part of a team and have lots of enthusiasm!

Spaces are limited, so sign up today!
