What will happen in your session?

Mozilla innovates by knowing what we can do, figuring out what the next hits might be, and remixing what we can do in new ways! In this session, we’ll each share our special capabilities in small teams and practice innovating like a DJ! What new ideas can you come up with to protect and enhance the Open Web, when you’re meeting new friends or working with new groups? Bring your imagination and think about the 2 or 3 things you most love doing- you’ll remix into small groups throughout, and you’ll learn the skills to innovate like a DJ!

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

The session will give participants a toolkit they can use to seed collaboration and spawn innovation in their own projects and groups. Participants will understand how DJ’s take existing music to put new sets and acts together, and learn from each new set- and that circular process can be applied to any group or project looking to innovate and build for the future. It’s a process we are starting to use within Mozilla to envision and create a future for our mission of sustaining the Open Web.

If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.

Lots of index cards and some clipboards. :)
