— Izzy Church NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, August 28, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Art-Tech Rise is proud to announce the successful completion of its inaugural hackathon, a groundbreaking event operated in collaboration with Gen Hax and 3rd Culture Creative. This exciting event brought together creatives worldwide to blend art and technology in New York City, resulting in impactful and innovative solutions aligned with the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

For this pilot, we supported the “Life Below Water” Sustainable Goal through two nonprofits, The Ocean Cleanup and Plastic Free July. Rebecca Prince Ruiz, the founder of Plastic Free July, helps “people and organizations around the world take action to reduce plastic waste by choosing to refuse single-use plastic.” She adds, "what really motivates people is giving them ideas.”.

The hackathon culminated in announcing its winners: Tina Cruz, Lewis Moran, Grant Aring, and Yizzar Prieto. Their game demo, inspired by the work of Izzy Church and Matty Austin, showcases a creative and impactful approach to addressing a critical environmental issue. Their Unity-based game demo highlights the urgent need for ocean cleanup by focusing on the problem of plastic pollution.

This collaboration not only boosts their visibility but also supports meaningful causes. We believe this synergy drives impactful change while providing the recognition and career opportunities both artists and developers deserve.” — Izzy Church, President, Art-Tech Rise
