New York Code & Coffee

Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you!

The Intro Circle
Near the beginning of the event (2:30 pm), we do a standup in a circle:

• We first share organizer announcements, updates, and logistics

Introductions (7 secs max):

• Your name
• Tech/coding topic(s) you want to talk about
• Non-tech topic(s) you want to talk about
• Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.

After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized. We sometimes have FEATURES in a nearby room; check out those events on Meetup as well.
Doors close at 4:00pm. Please keep us updated in the comments if you're intending to show up late, as we want to ensure our venue hosts are able to clean up in time to get out by 5pm and enjoy their weekends.

From Concert to Code: The IoT + Hardware Behind Taylor Swift's Dazzling 70K Fan Displays!

During the Taylor Swift Eras Tour, all fans had light up bracelets that created graphics across the crowd. These bracelets were given out at the gate and were not attached to a seat number, so how does this work?!? In this session we will reverse engineer the technology behind concert bracelets. We will also have a live demo of the hardware needed to make your own “clunky” bracelet. We will end off with how to scale up this technology across 70,000 people.

Attendee’s can leave this session with:

• Knowledge about different ways that Internet of Things (IoT) devices can communicate
• Basic hardware knowledge and information on how to start your own hardware project
• The joy of watching the chaotic process of a live hardware and coding demo!

PS would love to trade beaded bracelets with any swifties :) Bring yours to the session!
