You’ve been slowly counting down the days, scratching tally marks with a rock into the countertop. Well the wait is nearly over. In a mere six days, the Machine Project Pay-Per-View Comedy Special will be going LIVE to the world. Tune in to our website at 8pm sharp on Sunday, August 31st and witness the amateur comedy event of a lifetime. Pay the twenty five cents, take part in history. Watch the trailer here. WORKSHOP : SCRAPING, MUNGING AND MINING
Tuesday, September 2nd, Thursday, September 4th, and Tuesday, September 9th from 7-10pm
Did you know that humans are responsible for only 39% of internet traffic? The rest is composed of bots, applications, scripts, golems and fairy dust. In this class, students will learn how to use clever workarounds and hacks to join the data party and access that sweet, sweet torrent of information that was originally meant for other machines. In the process, you’ll learn about the inner workings of the internet, HTTP, SSL, URLs, HTML, JavaScript and more! We’ll also be learning how to do some basic scripting in Python along the way. Sign ups end at 6pm, Tuesday, September 2nd, act fast!
