DoC.Hack 2017

A hackday for all members of the Gold Computing community.

Build Awesome Stuff - Learn by Doing

At Goldsmiths we believe in "learning by doing". Hacksmiths and the Department of Computing invite you to take part in DoC.Hack - a friendly and welcoming introduction to the Computing Community at Goldsmiths. This is event is for all students in all programmes and years, and members of faculty.

For 6 hours you'll get to design and build weird, wacky and wonderful projects while meeting new people and having fun, before a relaxed show and tell.

No skill, ideas or team needed - just bring a laptop and we'll sort the rest.

Do I need a team?

You don’t need a team to take part; it’s perfectly acceptable to create a solo project. However, during the event itself, there will be opportunities to share ideas and connect with your fellow hackers to form a team. As organisers, we’ll do our best to encourage and facilitate teamwork across the weekend.
