Hi
All,
I'm the UK national co-ordinator for the International Computer
Camp for Young Visually Impaired People (ICC). The camp is an EU funded
project where participants from all over Europe meet and take part in
various technology workshops - ranging from sound editing, Internet radio,
programming to audiogames, mobility-technology and much more. This year the
creators of AudioQuake are demonstrating the game and giving some
programming tips, among other things. As well as the workshops, the week is
spent enjoying lots of leisure and culture activities and basically having a
cool time with loads of other people from all over the world!
The camp
has 2 events - one for younger participants (14 to 17) and one for older
participants (17to 20). There is already a full group of participants for
the older event but there are still a couple of places available for the
younger event.
The camp is taking place in Brno, the Czech Republic. The
dates for the younger event are: July 21st to July 28th and the group will
leave from Bristol International Airport. Funding is available to those who
need it and the group will be accompanied by experienced staff
members.
If you fancy a week of adventure, culture and technology (and
fun!!) please get in touch with Libby Hopton
([email protected]) as soon as possible. Places are
available to anyone in the UK who is between 14 and 17.
