Stupid Shit Nobody Needs and Terrible Ideas Hackathon 4.0
Technology. Since the Ancient Times it has only ever done objectively good stuff for everyone.
The Stupid Shit No One Needs & Terrible Ideas Hackathon Toronto: a hackathon dedicated to creating things that have absolutely no value, taking place at the Toronto Tool Library Makerspace at the Centre for Social Innovation. The weird Canadian cousin of stupidhackathon.com.
You can make whatever you want as long as it works and contributes nothing whatsoever to the world.
SUGGESTED CATEGORIES
avenging the smalt
machine yearning
commodities to end climate change
one Ring to rule them all
monetizing elon musk tweets
remotely controlled standing desk
all-organic flammable vaping alternatives
gig economy for roombas
blockchain for apiaries
Come with a team or meet new people to create a stupid, terrible idea that nobody needs! At the end of the day everyone will present their stupid terrible nonsense off at our Stupid Job Fair.
You can buy a ticket to participate in the hackathon and present your project OR if you'd just like to be very very very impressed, come to watch the presentations at the Stupid Job Fair. Bring your friends!
A hardware library with cameras, Arduinos, Cutting Edge "Electronic" Sensors, and more will be available for creating your stupid pointless garbage idea.
No tech expertise required! Bring us fresh eyes unsullied by the Status Quo. Bring us your fearless, innovative hearts and paradigm-bludgeoning minds. We need progammers, designers, comedians, videographers, artists, thought leaders, ideationists, neolibertarian techno-utopian oversimplifiers, the REAL HEROES, and YOU!
