The first POV Hackathon took place at POV’s Brooklyn office on Saturday and Sunday, August 11-12, 2012. Over the course of the weekend, five teams of filmmakers and developers worked to create finished prototypes for the web.
EdLab at Columbia University’s Teachers College documented the event for an episode of their upcoming New Learning Times series called “Seen in New York.” Watch the video recap below:
