If you got our newsletter last month, then you already know about HACKquariums.
Since we put out the call we’ve had lots of really brilliant applications sent back! Helloatto hosted a prototype HACKquarium last night in Belfast, and robots.ie are hosting another as part of the MAKE night at the Science Gallery in Dublin tomorrow night.
We’re just starting to get back to the people who have applied now, and wowee, you guys are cool !!!
So what’s the story?
Well, while we’re scaling up, we want as many of you as possible to play with and enjoy sugru, so we had an idea. Why don’t you lot host HACKquariums (HACKquaria?) … all over the world?
“What’s a HACKquarium then?” you might ask. It’s a good question – we just made it up.
A HACKquarium is a locally hosted night where you get to meet fellow hackers, have a few drinks and stick sugru on your stuff.
You provide the venue and the hackers, and we’ll provide massive blocks of sugru (for free!), as well as some instructional videos and a guide to making your HACKquarium kick ass.
We’re also looking for someone to provide the beer, but still no promises.
Apply to host a HACKquarium in your city, town or garden shed.
Saw you on Nationwide - v cool
