“Sky Time” began as a class project in a course on Humanitarian Free and Open Source Software offered through the RIT School of Interactive Games and Media, designed by Professor Stephen Jacobs and taught by Justin Sherrill. From there, it was refined during the Rochester Hack for Change Hackathon, an event hosted by the RIT MAGIC Center and orchestrated by Remy DeCausemaker, research staff in the Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) @ MAGIC initiative sponsored by Red Hat, Inc. The hackathon was part of the White House’s National Day of Civic Hacking.
