Coding Club: April 2020

Every month we mix and mingle, discuss an advanced topic and work on some projects in collaboration setup. There is  usually no mentor,, but it is a group of experts sharing their experience, providing use-cases and more. If you'd like to share your experience and guide some activities, please let us know! 

we are excited to have a well packed Coding Club at Newburgh Free Library for April 6th, 2020 - please come and network, learn and collaborate! The plan as the follows:

  • 10 Minutes for Everyone to introduce themselves to the group. We want to know who you are, what you do, language or technology focus, and what you're looking to get out of this group in the future!
  • Lev Tsenovoy and Michael Coney will introduce you to the Processing.org, a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts. Since 2001, #Processing has promoted software literacy within the visual arts and visual literacy within technology. There are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use Processing for learning and prototyping. It is very much applicable as a Coding framework for artists.
  • Michael MacIsaac will bring a boombox with a #Raspberry Pi in it and talk about what he has built. # RaspPi #IoT #Robotics
  • Open Mic for everyone

We will also discuss and plan next steps and topics as well as more tech programs coming to the region!

We are already brainstorming ideas for Hudson Valley Tech Festival 2020: choosing Priority Action Areas for the Hackathon

• What to bring
Laptops to work. Questions to ask. Projects to collaborate. Skills and ideas to share. Business cards to exchange.

• Important to know: Coding Club is a volunteer-based activity. We are looking forward to meet local techies and web pros as well as total novice who is interested to start this Coding/WebDev journey. We will work together as community to help each other to learn and grow. Please let us know if you want to give a talk, slides or discuss specific topic - you can submit your talk using this form
