Raul Nemes
Yogi Schulz
Warith Bamisedun - - 368 887 2993 Structure Networking Focus areas:
Introducing AI technology, how different CCC profiles are using it - a representative from each group to speak about prompt engineering and how GAI is impacting their craft; also consider ideas of: democratization of innovation, reduction of digital divides, digital equity
As AI impacts more and more of the human experience, how might this impact crafts adjacent to tech, such as fine arts, and draw perspectives from artists

To-do: ​Lets find a coder, collaborator and creative to show the usage of AI via Prompt Engineering in their work area:
(Creative) Martin Stares - declined
(Coder) Daqi Pei -
March 8, 2024:
Lee: to confirm what the hard cap for the Tenant Lounge is; believe it is 125
Lee: to determine if he can get AV equipment for the evening; backup is that Tim has some equipment
Lee: will run an “Olympic of Games” which he does with the tenants; consists of a series of games that teams of 4 can rotate through (e.g. basketball, skee ball, 3 ball pool, “beer” pong, arcade challenge, etc.) - he already has premade signs
Lee: has made contact with Heather McRae (city economic development amongst retailers?) - to connect further with CCC for potential door prizes
Tim: compile some stats and analytics for CCC over the last 2 years to use as marketing material > provide to Luis to “beautify”; then use to solicit door prizes from sponsors
Creatives - for an ongoing HUMAN feature at the events

Pictures mashup of last event - visual representation of what to expect
Warith to send details of a hackathon event involving many oil and gas companies: > It looks like Corva is a solutions platform provider and ran a hackathon that invited different users within the O&G space (drilling, completions, geoscience, sustainability) to use its app building platform to create some outputs. Very neat! Knowing that they are a solutions provider, we would want to work further to see how they may want to engage a non-profit initiative like ours. We do welcome for profits to participate in our events, some have chosen to sponsor, but we just want to be mindful of not giving too extensive of a platform to sell their products to those attending. So, just need to establish some alignment of intention.
