In Meta’s first Presence Platform hackathon in Menlo Park, CA, I met and collaborated with inspiring and innovative designers and developers from around the world in a three day, first place take-all competition for $50,000!

After breakfast, a welcome and tech talks from Reality Labs staff to kickoff the event, ideas were shared amongst participants, and we were formed into teams of no more than five people with diverse skill sets, aligned around compelling and competitive ideas. Our team created “Wreckommendation Engine”, a music recommendation concept that lets people explore new music in a fun and sometimes destructive way that can only be experienced in mixed reality (MR)!
