Generocity's Tech in The Commons
|
CFM
recently had the opportunity to attend Generocity’s Tech in The Common 2018 series at different center-city locations including the City’s Muciple Services Building, which “
included
digital and data storytelling
,
augmented and virtual reality
,
social media for action
and
Smart Cities
.” The introduction and reintroduction to the aforementioned was a neuronal experience, energizing as it stimulated my thinking and connection to the tech world of all things internet and possible. It was “all part of the
second installment of Tech in the Commons
, Generocity’s free tech bootcamp series presented by Knight Foundation and Comcast NBCUniversal.” All events were well attended, people were very interested and open to sharing tech information and learning, from the speakers to audience members, a sense of collegiality was well balance in part because of the host and their caring, but professional mannerisms and personalities. The interaction, involvement, and hands on was both stimulating and very informational, as well as educational. I would certainly recommend attendance at next year’s Tech in The commons event (2019).
