Events Information

AUHack 2024

For this year's AUHack, we will be having a ton of events! Here you are able to see what each of them are about, and whether you have to sign up to be able to participate in them. We hope there are some events here that catch your eye!

How to sign up for events

For every event that you have to sign up for, you have to go to the info stand and let an organizer know. If it's an event where you have to be a group, then tell the organizer your group number. If it's an event that is not for entire groups, then tell the organizer your name. If it is neither, then it says what you should do on the event itself below.

Sign-up specifics

No need to sign up!

Description

Time for evaluation, the very last event of the weekend (with the exception of the award ceremony). You will want to make sure to be ready at your group table when our judges come by to ask questions about your hack.

For more information on this very important part of AUHack, see the dedicated page here!

Murder Mystery

The entirety of the weekend
Nygaard
Sign-up specifics

No need to sign up!

Description

This event also does not have a specific timeslot nor is shown on the schedule. That's because this murder mystery game will be going on for most of the weekend. As the name suggests, you will have to guess how someone has been 'killed', with new hints showing up over the duration of the weekend. The event will be explained more in-depth during the opening ceremony.

Yoga

Nygaard-192
Sign-up specifics

Sign up per person.

Description

The best way to wake up in the morning after breakfast - some yoga!

As we all know, IT folk have terrible posture being bent over our laptops for the majority of our day - and possibly all night too! Attend this event if you want to have an edge on your competition or if you were supposed to have been to fitness this morning (but didn't go because AUHack is of course prioritized ;))

One Minute Madness
One Minute Madness
Sunday, 11:00-12:00
Peter Bøgh Auditorium
Sign-up specifics

We will ask for a single slide late saturday/early sunday from each group.

Description

It's time. Show everybody what you have come up with and how far you got, and be sure to make full use of that minute! You will be given neither more nor less than 60 seconds, so good luck!

Psst. Remember that your presentation will be part of the evaluation of your hack.
