Thanks @nbashaw for hunting us! I'm one of the people behind Recess Labs - you can think of us like a pre-idea incubator or group EIR program based in NYC. We created the program to scratch our own itch. Several of us were going though career transitions / sabbaticals, and we decided to form a community to give us more structure & support than we were getting on our own. We have only a few guidelines: * Build things you personally want. * Approach your projects with a mindset of play and exploration. * Be prolific -- put out a "first draft" as soon as possible. We have people working on everything from SAAS products to novels to art for Burning Man. Would love any suggestions / comments / feedback you have!

@moinism thanks! We're actually thinking about creating a Slack community and some kind of remote program for people who aren't currently in NYC and can't get here. What are you working on nowadays? :)

@moinism cool! Love your personal site, by the way. DM me on Twitter? Will keep you in the loop w/ our plans for a remote batch :)

this sounds totally rad! Didn't quite gather from the website when the program starts though?

@jonbstrong hey! Program is currently in-session and we're accepting people on a rolling basis to join through the end of the summer. Let me know if interested and I can pass on more details!
