Any Hostos students or alumni interested in showcasing games on November 11th? Apparently, there will be a media presence and funders from AT&T present. If you're interested, email Rudy Blanco ([email protected]).

--------------------------
The soft launch of the DYBXStart space is on the week of November 11th. On this date we will be having a community visioning workshop which will look to get community input and feedback around the types of programming gamers and game developers would like to see out of our new gaming space. After that, there will be a game devs show case (assuming we can get some HOSTOS devs out here to showcase their work) We would like to provide space for them to show their games to community members. There will be media and funders from AT&T there. It is a great way to meet folks and be the first group to present out of this new space. It is low stakes and devs will be stationed around the room.

Immediately after, we will be holding a Super Smash brothers tournament until 11pm that night in which any HOSTOS studdnts are more than welcome to participate in. I've attached a one pager that explains our mission and what we will be doing this year. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you or anyone on the team has any questions!

Last night's All Majors Meeting was an exciting and lively event with a standing room only crowd of students assembled. As this is the last that I will attend as a professor in the program, my mind wandered back to our first convening of the students signed up as digital design majors back in the winter of 2009....what a difference a decade makes. So glad to have helped make this happen, and so very thankful for all the faculty (especially Catherine, Marino, Sarah, and Andy) whose years of devotion to the spark of an idea have made this possible. BIG BIG LOVE, folks!
