GWU OSCON 2025

GW OSCON 2025's resources and open source collaborative art piece

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE ART

1. Make some art! The OSCON has construction paper, pastels, and giant markers that you can use to create your masterpiece. That can be abstract patterns, self-portraits, botanicals, stick figures, messages, and anything else you'd like to share. If you'd like to share something you've already made, that's fine too.
2. Take a photo of your work (your phone will work just fine)
3. Click on the button that says "Fork" to create your own copy of this repository.
4. Click on the YOUR_PHOTOS_HERE folder in the codebase, choose Add File in the top right corner, and upload your photo.
5. Click on "Pull requests" and then "New Pull Request"
6. As the "base repository", select gw-ospo/gwoscon2025 and select main for the "base". As the "head repository", select "YOUR_USER_NAME/gwoscon2025" with main as the base.
7. Open your pull request! Once we merge it, your art will join the projection.

If you aren't sure how any of these steps work, ask an OSCON volunteer to show you.

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE CODE

This projection is a github pages site, brought to you by Jekyll and p5.js. The fun stuff is in the _includes directory, particularly Photo.js, a class that handles animation and display of all the floating artwork.

To run locally, customize settings if needed in _config.yml, run bundle install to install ruby gems, and run bundle exec jekyll serve to launch in-browser.

CONFERENCE DETAILS

This repository hosts The OSCON 2025 Code of Conduct and The OSCON 2025 No-Show Policy
