- Worth noticing
- Applicants send a 60-second video; the page says polish matters less than having a project, skill or strong take.
Field notes
Applicants are asked to show what they have built, broken or made, then say what comes next; the page says polish is not the selection criterion. Its itinerary leaves most of the stay unscheduled, with a final-night show-and-tell rather than formal workshops or pitch decks. The displayed budget itemizes flights, lodging, a game setup and food, while stating that selected guests pay nothing.
