Our mission is to democratize creation for all.

Building things to solve one's own problems should be a possibility for everyone, regardless of their age, economic status, education, or opportunities, without relying on governments or corporations.

Today, some developers and makers instinctively develop applications, tools, or hardware to solve their own problems when they arise. Thus, they learn effectively at maximum speed.

We want this culture of hacking to become the norm in society.

We’re working to cultivate the hacker culture for students, developers, and active citizens by building an Adventure Playground for creators to hack, play, and learn.

We believe in the combined power of active citizenship and lifelong kindergarten via the 4Ps of Creative Learning: Passions, Projects, Peers, and Play.

When creators build things, it strengthens their magic - their ability to learn and create across disciplinary boundaries, to learn in public, to be creative, and to help them master and hone their practical skills, such as software engineering or biology.

We rely on four strategies to work towards our goal.

• Help creators broaden their horizons and perspectives by exposing them to new technologies, disciplines, and problem domains.
• Create automations and open-source technologies to solve problems for each community. We aim to develop open technology in collaboration with multiple communities, and have widespread adoption by multiple groups.
• Connect creators and organizations via hackathons, open-source projects, game shows, initiatives, and meetups.
• Raise awareness in other communities through media and science communication.

When a creator takes the lead and collaborates with other communities, they can solve even greater problems. By connecting interdisciplinary communities to collaborate on projects, they are able to share resources, learn from other experts, and achieve their shared goals.

This inspires us to connect and grow creators and communities across disciplines by creating a Community Mesh, an interconnected network of communities with shared values of lifelong learning.
