What happens when you confront a talented group of creative minds with a set of technical limitations within which they are supposed to come up with an original thought, an idea of their own?

I had the great honor of working on this question with about ten master’s students at the renowned HEAD Genève. Basically, the parameters here were perfect: we were able to work together intensively for a whole week. The students already had experience with programming, which meant that the whole course flowed smoothly.

The 128KB Challenge I developed, the accompanying website with basic social media functions – everything worked together perfectly.

I had great conversations and returned home feeling absolutely blessed and inspired.

A big thank you to Alexia Mathieu and Pablo Bellon and to all the participants.

I hope we can do it again!
