"The medium is the message."-M. McLuhan Welcome.

June 23 to September 14

Liberal Arts Grads/Students/nontech professional who want to learn a new skill? Comp Sci student or professional who wants to read the texts that comment on the meanings of what we are creating?

A book club and peer mentorship society for those who want to learn either:
a) a new computer programming language (most likely Ruby).
b) The classic and current texts of why coding, computers, and the internet matter so much in our society- such as Foucault, Plato, and Siva Vaidyanathan (among others).

People who are inquisitive, and want to instigate change in many industries through this cross-learning experiment- reply.

Our Point-
We meet twice a week
Once to go over coding projects (from complete newbie to advanced)

And the second time to ask the essentials questions about why we code through a book club. Such as;

What is the pupose of a twitter storm
Do I really want to support everything about copyleft?
Am I stuck in the Panopticon? Or are we doing something different?

Hope to see you soon! (Meetup location in manhattan/brooklyn and books to be decided by members...its a coding group and book club)
