ZOOHACK 2016, a Hackathon to help create the world’s most technological zoo will be held at Western Sydney University’s Launch Pad Innovation Centre on Friday 8th April. It is the very first event of its type in Australia, bringing together enthusiasts to explore the intersection of humans, technology and nature. For the uninitiated, a Hackathon is an event where a range of people get together to work collaboratively and brainstorm ideas that intellectually, emotionally, and sensorily connect people with the natural world, excite the imagination, and inspire action.
