Congratulations to the winners of the 24-hour challenge
Our judges were consistently impressed by the outstanding work that our contestants managed to achieve within 24 hours. It was a tough decision and close, but we only had four scholarships to give away.
The OzCHI travel scholarships towards attending the conference in Canberra in November go to:
(in alphabetical order)
- Team CS::RMIT from RMIT Melbourne (Australia) for DistractMi.
- Team orana from the Indian Institute of Technology (Guwahati, India) for their random place tab extension.
- Team That Sentient Feeling from the University of Sydney (Australia) for their ‘Lift as curator‘ entry.
- Team UTAS (a.k.a. the Soulless Minions of Orthodoxy) from the University of Tasmania (Australia) for their Serendipity Engine.
These teams will be invited to write a paper about their projects and present their work at the OzCHI conference.
Congratulations to the winning teams, and to everyone for their outstanding entries. We were in particular impressed by Team Fresh Idea‘s video animation and Team NMD-NID’s thoughtful process. A huge thanks to our honoured judges, Tim Buesing, Pedro Fernandes, Marcus Foth, Penny Hagen, and Ben Kraal, as well as our supporting partners, in particular we would like to thank Telstra and Rosenfeld Media.
See you at OzCHI in November, where we will find out who the overall winner of the challenge will be.
