Did you know that March 14th is International Pi Day?!!

This useful mathematical constant has it’s own day and John Gill will be helping us to join a bunch of Raspberry Pi Day celebrations, from Hawaii to New York City and beyond!

Come through to Chewstick at 81 Front Street for a last chance to experience and support the renovation campaign, make a donation, play some games and eat some actual pies.

You’ll have the chance to experience a $30 computer (Raspberry Pi) that runs off a phone charger. We’ll be making videos of people performing, playing games etc, so bring your camera, SD card, instruments to contribute your content as we build a Raspberry Pi media centre.

The day will begin with an explanation of the day’s significance and walk through the significant digits of Pi 3.141592653. At 9:26 we will show a video from the Raspberry micro computer and continue with some hands-on demonstration on Raspberry Pi micro-computers XBMC.
