Over the Air 2011
Event Info
Description
Up for a bit of code-breaking with your code-making?
The 4th annual Over the Air will be held on Friday the 30th of September and Saturday the 1st of October at Bletchley Park - for two days up to 400 mobile developers & designers be based at Station X, hacking in the shadows of the WWII Enigma & Lorenz code-breakers, and hanging out at the home of Colossus the world's first programmable computer....we're geeking out already!
Over the Air is a unique tech-agnostic event for and by the developer community, featuring technical workshops where attendees can roll up their sleeves and tinker with new platforms, operating systems, APIs & SDKs; and tutorial sessions that feature real business cases & new insights. This year (in keeping with our location at Bletchley Park) we will be exploring the theme of security and encryption alongside other topics.
On Friday evening there will be a series of inspirational Ignite Bletchley Park talks, opened by the BBC's Bill Thompson. Attendees are invited to stay overnight so that they can work on ideas, apps and hacks on the fly – to be entered into the various hack-a-thon competition categories and demo’ed on the second day. It’s a great vibe of bean bags, gadgets, knowledge sharing, hacking & lots of good geekery.
It's free to attend, other than a small £5 donation to Bletchley Park, and a breeze to reach from London Euston Station - so no need to hesitate, register now!
