Time: 10:00—18:00
Place: ITU Copenhagen (Go to the fifth floor. Locate rooms 5A14—16. If you find a useful hackathon, you have gone too far.)
Pointless Hackathon is an anti-hackathon: a day for building things nobody needs and solving problems nobody has through creative coding. Bring an idea with no market, no roadmap, and preferably no practical value; pitch it in one minute, find some equally questionable collaborators, and spend the day making it real. At the end, we demo the results and make no attempt to justify them.
