HackyHour Giessen
Code - Tools - Science - Help - Social
About
Come to talk about Code, Data, Tools and Science in a social environment. If you want to know how computational tools and code can improve your science/work or you just want to meet “open scienc-y” people: join us. The event is open to everyone. No prior knowledge required. No registration etc. needed.
If you’d like to watch a video about what HackyHour is, Florian explained it in a Coffee Lecture.
When and Where
We’ll meet monthly every fourth Wednesday at 5 pm for one and a half hours in the Makerspace Giessen. Location on OpenStreetMap.
Please bring your own computer, as we cannot provide any resources in this regard and then can also work through installations.
