The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.

Orange contrast lane striping is clearly visible in this aerial photo of a work zone in Fife.
The contrast striping was added in this area where both directions of I-5 have been shifted to the right to make room for the work area in the median. Crews are building new bridges as part of the Puget Sound Gateway Program's SR 167 Completion Project. Shifting lanes can leave behind "ghost stripes" that can occasionally make it difficult to clearly see current striping. In addition, many people still drive through fast through work zones, endangering themselves, others and crew. This pilot project will help determine whether orange striping is an effective tool to increase work zone awareness and safety.
Washington is only the fifth state to experiment with orange contrast lane striping. We're gathering information about speeds, collisions, work zone intrusions and whether drivers more consistently maintain their lane. The orange lane striping will remain in place through fall 2023.
The information we gather will be submitted to the Federal Highway Administration in 2024 to help it determine if orange striping is something that can be used more often across the nation.
Sanad’s mother reads to him in Jordan as part of an effort called Drive to Read (DTR). Funded by USAID for three years, the program aimed to foster a love for reading and build a reading culture among the children of Jordan. DTR is a mobile library which takes educational and cultural activities into East Amman and Zarqa neighborhoods, where large concentrations of disadvantaged people live. Each bookmobile – one in East Amman and another one in Zarqa – is equipped with over 2,000 Arabic- and English-language books and acts as a magnet for families in search of interesting and fun activities to do.

I recently took a picture of my kodak duaflex and this one was complaining of being neglected, so I took a photo of it and posted it to make it happy :)

Artist Statement and bio:
Artist Statement
Figurative sculptures set within tableaux reflect my search for serenity and the quiet moments when this inner state becomes apparent. Sculpting the human body and placing it within a context permits me to explore consciousness by mirroring it outwardly. It also reflects my perspective about the universal connectedness within our inner and outer worlds. As a sculptor my intent is to convey a sense of the psychology of the female attribute and intuitive nature. The temporal quality of human existence is an underlying theme implicit in the choice of clay as a sculptural material. Contemplative in nature the sculptures combine sepia toned photo decal imagery with the female figure to picture memory and to indicate a sense of its timelessness.

The fall 2012 hackNY student hackathon brought in hundreds of students to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative collaborative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
NYC Startups, selected by a student organizing committee, presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, after which students formed groups to work through the night implementing their own ideas for fresh hacks built on top of these APIs.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel featuring members of the NYC startup community, which selected the final winning teams.
Since April 2010, hackNY hosts student hackathons one each semester, as well as the hackNY Fellows program, a structured internship which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment: a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup in NYC.

Art Interruptions, an annual temporary art program created by the Office of Arts & Culture in partnership with the Seattle Department of Transportation, will offer ephemeral moments of surprise and reflection in the Rainer Valley East-West Neighborhood Greenway. This area includes: New Holly, Othello, Brighton, Lakewood and Seward Park. Beginning September, seven temporary installations on view in the greenway from through January 2, 2017, will inspire and enliven the route with an element of the unexpected. Art Interruptions is funded by Seattle Department of Transportation 1% for Art funds.
The artworks range from street sign paintings to a collage fabricated entirely out of aluminum soda cans. The seven selected artists include Ruben David, Melissa Koch, Vikram Madan, Ulises Mariscal, Kemba N. Opio, little talia, and Junko Yamamoto. Working with the Seattle Department of Transportation and the Office of Arts & Culture, each artist designed a series of small-scale temporary artworks to be installed on city-owned street furniture and infrastructure, including signal boxes, utility poles, sidewalks, and street trees. (Several projects appear on private property adjacent to the right of way with permission of the property owners.) This year, six of the selected artists participated in the 2016 Public Art Boot Camp, a free two-day intensive basic training overview offered by the Office of Arts & Culture's Public Art Program offered to artists who are ready to translate their exhibition experience to the public realm.
The installations include a series of stencils featuring images of various community members that bring positivity to the pedestrians of the Greenway; tiny sculptures inspired by historic and present-day forms of transportation in Seattle; and a collage of butterflies representing cultural diversity.
