Have you ever dreamed of building a video game? Well here’s your chance of making that dream come true. During this workshop, we’ll build a 2D platformer like Super Mario Brothers, and A top down RPG like Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. No previous game dev experience is required. If you’re new to Ruby, that’s okay too. Building games is a fantastic way to learn a language. You’ll be given a free, unrestricted commercial license of DragonRuby Game Toolkit (this is the game engine we’ll be using during the workshop). **Filmed by Colorado Union Videographers

If we take the wayback machine to the time before there was Resilience Engineering, we find Cognitive Systems Engineering. Central to CSE is the concept of Joint Cognitive Systems - human/machine teaming based on principles of shared cognitive efforts, not simply dividing the work to be done across humans and machines. This thought-provoking and interactive workshop will give you a whole new lens to think about your work and the problems you face working on and with highly automated systems using a combination of lecture, discussion and hands on exercises. **Filmed by Colorado Union Videographers

The terminal glowed a sickly pale green, reflecting in her lenses. “What do you mean, RecordInvalid?” she scoffed, and set to the task of debugging the factory. Hairs stood up on her neck as she realized the implications of her findings — she could practically smell the corrosion, but it was nobody’s fault. It was everyone’s fault. Data was long ago divorced from the human lives they were intended to improve. Dmitry bolted upright in a sweat. She was safe at home — it was all a dream, at least for now. There was still time. She started her morning routine, but breakfast was the last thing on her mind. She didn’t know all the factors, but she knew where to begin. Join me in this whimsical exploration of some not-so-whimsical tactics to put your test factories to work in some unconventional ways. **Filmed by Colorado Union Videographers
