The New Beginning

Mindfest was a success this past weekend! We had many Design IT students come and participate in the weekend's fun and activities. Many of them were volunteers helping out in the playshops, the Mindfest Day Activities around the museum, and some even stayed to experience much more. We had students from both the ALA and the Boys and Girls Clubs come to be a part of the events. I personally had help from about 6 different ALA students over the course of the three days, doing circuit bending and scratch animation. The experience for them was a good one - getting the kids interested in showing off their work to others and excited about new forms of creativity.
This week we begin with the new group from the ALA, as well as heavier recruitment from the Clubs. More will be posted here when the new schedule of events becomes available later today. The cycle work is supposed to begin this week - the murder group with storytelling, and the gaggle with machines. This may change, but all will be posted here no matter those changes. I'm looking forward to the new beginning.
