Family day, April 21st

Sunday April 21st employees at the Oslo Metropolitan University had a very nice opportunity to give the rest of their families an impression of what goes on at their workplace. A lot of people, both young and old, found their way to Pilestredet 35 (P35), where they got served muffins, buns, chocolate milk, coffee and 3D printed pancakes. They also got to play with lots of fun and advanced toys. Among the activities where

  • playing Beat Saber with VR goggles,
  • creating funky beats and loops – and have small robots play them,
  • constructing and shipping off small, rubber band driven boats,
  • climbing the high wall in P35,
  • making customized stickers and buttons.

And, last but not least, the visitors got to play Quantum Moves and program our first quantum computer Hugin – under the attentive guidance of our own Quantum Hub and ACIT master student Suleman Hersi.

Chances are that our familiy members are left with the impression that we who work at OsloMet are actually payed play all day. On a good day, that impression isn’t all wrong, I guess.

Again, we thank the Makerspace for putting together a wonderful event.
