In the future, humans will live in dense hyperbuildings called arcologies, sustainably integrated into our environments, made of modern materials.

How do we design our physical spaces to be configurable and programmable? What cryptocoins and autonomous contracts will fund and govern our art collectives? What kinds of stories or music or art will we perform for each other using tools ancient and post-apocalyptic? Bring your imagination, your laptop, your music makers, or your art supplies to explore with us. Write a story, make some songs, code some code.
This is a hacker after-party in Bushwick for the World Maker Faire in nearby Queens. We will discuss progress toward building a real-life Arcology here in NYC as a co-created, self-modifying home, where researchers, crafters, artists, coders, hackers, makers, startuppers, carpenters, gardeners, cooks, and poets can thrive together.
<H2>Here's what you can expect</H2>
Super Happy Dev House is an inclusive event intended for creative and curious people interested in technology. We're about knowledge sharing, technology exploration, and ad-hoc collaboration. Come to have fun, build things, learn things, and meet new people. It's called hacker culture, and we're here to encourage it. Hacking is not just limited to software projects: design, electronics, coffee, robots, artsy craftsy things, 3D printing, are all welcome.
We'll have comfy couches, plenty of tables and desks, power strips, fast wifi, a spacious rooftop, and some great people to hack with. Please bring a project to work on, or be prepared to help someone else with their project! Unlike normal hackathons, you are encouraged to work on weird ideas with no business plan and to continue work on existing projects to push them even further.
We will begin at 6pm right after World Maker Faire in nearby Queens, and go all night through to Sunday morning. You are free to come and go throughout the evening, and sleeping bags/pads are welcome to spend the night! On Saturday night, we'll start rounding up volunteers to give 5 minute lightning talks at 10pm.
Super Happy Dev House is organized by the <A HREF="http://invisible.college/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Invisible College</A>, a distributed research lab and arcology-in-the-making. It follows in a line of hacker parties from Seattle hosted by Kathleen Tuite, Adam Smith, and Paul Pham.
