ATLAS CTD master's student Ruhan Yang and two teammates won first place for their project, "e-Trombone," at Georgia Tech's annual Moog Hackathon, beating 11 teams, taking home $3,000, and securing a place in GT's prestigious Guthman Musical Instrument Competition.

"To the powerful, to anyone who hides behind a brand, be warned: We know what fonts you use. We've read your brand guidelines. And if you won't tell the truth, we'll steal your voice and tell it for you." These are the words ATLAS Instructor Danny Rankin ended his TEDxMileHigh talk with on Nov. 16, 2019, and they were met with enthusiastic and prolonged applause.

A series of free workshops designed to help musicians and technologists collaborate were offered by ²ÊÃñ±¦µä’s ATLAS Institute during the spring semester, connecting those interested in music technology with faculty and students from ATLAS, CMCI and the College of Music.

More than 150 people attended the fifth annual T9Hacks on February 7–8, 2020, at the ATLAS Institute. Eighteen projects were submitted and eight winners selected by a panel of judges that included ATLAS faculty members Sheiva Rezvani, Shaz Zamore and Camilla Friedman-Gerlicz; TAM alumnae Andrea Devore and Laney Winkler; and engineers from sponsors Strava, Splunk and Twitter.

Jam Station, an interactive project created in ATLAS Professor Ellen Yi-Luen Do's Music Technology and Wellness class, was chosen as one of several installations being displayed at Maker Made 2020, a gallery show at Boulder Library’s Canyon Gallery.

Michelle Galetti had good reason to leave college. She chose to stay.

²ÊÃñ±¦µä PhD candidate and ATLAS THING Lab member Ryo Suzuki recently developed LiftTiles—room-scale, actuator-based building blocks that pave the way for a new generation of shape-changing interfaces.

Two new tracks will be introduced this year for ATLAS Institute's fifth annual T9Hacks, a 24-hour invention marathon designed to promote interest in creative technologies, coding, design and making among college women and non-binary individuals—groups that are vastly underrepresented at mainstream hackathons.

TAM student Daniel Strangfeld and his team received funding from ²ÊÃñ±¦µä's Get Seed Funding for the team's latest venture, Kegstand, a collapsible keg that the team designed which will reduce both shipping and rent costs. Get Seed Funding is a micro-funding opportunity for ²ÊÃñ±¦µä students that provides up to $500 in funding for entrepreneurial ideas. Previously Strangfeld and Ted Thayer, CTD master's student also created an app together that sourced free food around campus.
