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.

Would you like to travel to the Netherlands to immerse yourself in Dutch culture (think clogs, cheese and Flemish art) but continue your course in English? Could learning Asian business skills in a local language, and a few games of tea house mahjong, improve your global career prospects? Gain a competitive edge against your peers by studying at the University of Oklahoma, world-renowned for their research and teaching in atmospheric sciences. Maybe soaking up the Madrid sun, feasting on tapas and polishing your Spanish, while continuing your studies, is more your speed, or you might like to study alongside the scientists who played an integral role in the discovery of the Higgs Boson while exploring Israel's most dynamic and diverse city.

UnionDocs presents the first screening of the Optical Boundaries tour. This program features three filmmakers whose respective works explore a variety of environments as well as the formal properties of the film medium. Though working independently, their films culminate in an examination of the film material as a true document of past and present. Each artist calls attention to the process of separation and recombination through the use of discarded View-master cells, appropriated 16mm nature footage, and a kaleidoscopic amalgam of the new and old world.
Program runtime approximately 60 minutes.
HHOOWWLLby Steve Cossman
USA, 2010, 7 minutes, 16mm
Shot on a Kodak Cine II special effects camera, a collection of recognizable masks are captured and layered on film. The screaming colors fuse together in a choir of haunting forms, slipping and melting on the screens surface.
CRUSHERby Steve Cossman
USA, 2010 video transferred to 16mm
An unabridged photograph translated from its still print. Read left to right, pixel by pixel, CRUSHER mechanically sequences single color as single frame creating organic waves of color.
TUSSLEMUSCLE by Steve Cossman
USA, 2007-9, 5 minutes, 16mm
The work presented is a reflection on humanity’s ecological relationship and the ritual of restoration. The violent pulse speaks with a sense of urgency and chaotic struggle while the hypnotic arrangement keeps us in blinding awe us to its condition. TUSSLEMUSCLE is composed of 7,000 single frames, which were appropriated from view-master reel cells. Each frame was hand-spliced to create a linear film-strip.
tonal tide by Ross Nugent
USA, 2009,9 minutes, 16mm
This camera-less film was conceived as a darkroom performance to expose the potential and vulnerability of the color film stock at hand. Both the image and sound were created by flashing raw stock; a peculiar pattern emerged in the soundtrack area as light was scattered by the edge of the film base.
Spillway Study/ Carpe Diez by Ross Nugent
USA, 2010, 8 minutes, 16mm
This three-projector piece was created as a color separation project using 16mm Kodachrome nature photography footage from the late ‘70s as its source. The original was optically printed onto three strands and arranged to simultaneously abstract and call attention to the forces at hand. Using a primary color filter on each projector (R-G-B) and some precise hand-jiving, I combine the images and tease out a range colors.
Sahara Mosaic by Fern Silva
USA, 2009, 10 minutes, 16mm
An orientalist kaleidoscope that constitutes a geographically complex yet cinematic whole. From Egypt to Las Vegas: the old and the new world are reflected and doubled in this experimental travelogue.
Steve Cossman received his BFA in Sculpture from Albright College and went on to study Animation in the Czech Republic at FAMU. After returning to the United States, he worked as artist assistant to John Chamberlain from 2006-2009 during which his focus turned primarily to film and video work. Currently he lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. There he is founder/director of Mono No Aware, an ‘annual exhibition of expanded cinema’ showcasing contemporary artists who incorporate live projections as part of their work. Cossman believes that ‘time is constantly moving within a framework of units and that this irrepressible motion is the nexus of human experience’. Working to create a resonating interval, he often re-structures a familiar sequence within a patterned visual language causing the viewer to give thought to established perceptional relationships. Recent film screenings of his work include Ann Arbor Film Festival, Chicago Underground Film Festival, Milwaukee Underground Film Festival, Seattle International Film Festival, and VideoEx in Zurich. His work can be found in the collections of the University of Seattle, WA, University of Hartford Art School, and The Len Lye Foundation, New Zealand. A solo show of his video works will be held in March 2011 at Trinity College, CT.
Ross Nugent hails from wilds of Western Pennsylvania. He earned a BA in Film Studies at the University of Pittsburgh and studied film and video production at Pittsburgh Filmmakers, where he began working in media exhibition in 2003. Ross served as the Exhibition Coordinator from 2005-2008, and matriculated to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee to pursue an MFA in Film. He is also the Program Manager of the UWM Union Theatre, the Faculty Advisor for the Milwaukee Underground Film Festival, and an instructor in the Film Dept.
His film, video, installation, and sculptural work is rooted in using process-oriented techniques of film production, including contact and optical printing, and examines nostalgia and decay as mediated through cinema. Poetic gestures emerge through hand-manipulation of film material, which serves as the impetus for many of his artistic endeavors. His current work includes live cinema projects. Exhibitions of these multi-projector performances include The Museum of Modern Art (NYC) as part of a group show utilizing Analyst projectors, Mono No Aware (NYC), and recently at the Onion City Experimental Film and Video Festival (Chicago).
Since 2005, Fern Silva has been an active filmmaker whose personal journeys and impulsery disposition give rise to his visionary process. He has created a body of film, video, and projection work that conveys a congruent existence through the aesthetics of reflections and detriments within controlled microcosms. His work has been screened and performed at various festivals, galleries, and cinematheques including International Film Festival Rotterdam, New York Film Festival, Anthology Film Archive, Images Festival, IndieLisboa International Film Festival, Bangkok Experimental Film Festival, Biennale Bandits-Mages Festival, Roulette Gallery, Millennium Film Workshop, White Box Gallery, 119 Gallery, and P.S.1. Fern Silva is from central Connecticut, he received a BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and his MFA from Bard College. Fern will be screening two works as part of this years Views from the Avant-Garde.

The infamous Smoky Mountain proved too much of an embarrassment to government officials and was closed; now Payatas is the main site for dumping. It is a smelly, hot toxic tip, of about 220 hectares. It is home to 200,000 urban poor families.
Women, men and children scavenge the waste from dawn to dusk, collecting cans, plastic, scrap metals, bottles and newspapers to earn 60-70 pesos per day. The minimum needed by a family of six (the average size of a Filipino family), as calculated by the National Economic Development Agency, is 250 pesos per day.
Life is hard in Payatas. Women give birth amidst Manila's refuse, without safe water, electricity or professional help. Wells exist, but it often takes half an hour to 45 minutes to reach them. The smell is hard to bear, but the people of Payatas are accustomed to it.
It is not the smell that is deadly; it is the toxic fumes rising from decomposing plastic, bottles and scrap. People on the scrap heaps die at about 40 years because of these fumes.
Companies require at least high school level education before they hire. Parents in most urban poor communities do not have the money to enrol their children in high school. If you are born in Payatas, you remain there.
The people of Payatas have no safe water, electricity, sewerage or government assistance in job searching. They live in one-room shacks made of cardboard, tin or leftover wooden planks. In some families, sleeping is rotated because the room is not large enough to accommodate all the bodies.
The government is threatening to take even this away from the people. Demolition teams destroy shantytowns with no thought for destroyed lives. In Payatas, the poor are struggling for the right to remain and scavenge. The government has threatened to close the dump by the end of 1994. The local mayor promised the community that he would provide livelihood programs, but the discussions have led to nothing concrete. Seventy-five per cent of the Payatas population directly or indirectly live off the dump.
There are legitimate concerns about the location of the dump. The main water supply for Quezon City and other parts of metro-Manila (catering for about half a million people) is two kilometres from Payatas. In the rainy season, run-off from the dump contaminates the water supply.
The conditions we saw at Payatas were appalling. First World pets live in better conditions than some of the urban poor. The reasons for this kind of poverty? The Philippines has a debt of $36 billion. Two-third of the country's budget goes towards servicing this debt. The second priority of the corrupt Ramos government is military spending.
The World Bank and International Monetary Fund dictate these kind of priorities.
The United States in 1909 imposed "free trade" on the colonised Philippines. This ensured that the Philippine economy remained agriculturally based, a market for US manufactured products.
After the second world war, with the country in ruins, the US agreed to provide aid only if the economy was tied even tighter to US interests. When governments tried to halt the unequal trade relations, the IMF withdrew funding. The US and its economic think-tanks, the IMF and World Bank, have not only the Philippines in debt. Almost every other Third World country has undergone World Bank "structural adjustment programs" which only weaken their economies — and the people.
