Three minutes · pick a route, you can switch later
The camp has a lot in it — that's on purpose. This page is the short way in. Pick the route that fits where you are right now; nothing locks you in, and most people end up wandering across more than one.
For teachers, coaches, and curriculum designers who want a lesson, protocol, worksheet, or student-facing activity about how AI actually works.
Works for ages 6–12 and account-restricted classrooms — students never need to log into a tool.
For artists, designers, and students who want to make images, video, prompts, or studio artifacts, and to think clearly about the ethics while doing it.
Uneasy about consent, labor, and where "use" becomes "taking"? You're not alone here — sit it next to AI Use + Consent and Further Reading.
For people who are skeptical, object to direct generation, are priced out, or simply want to think critically before touching a tool. This is a first-class route, not a fallback.
Readings lean critical and intersectional — fiction and philosophy, not another technical bibliography.
For the under-the-hood crowd who want to watch tokens, probabilities, and diffusion steps directly. Optional depth — reach for it when you want it.
Not sure where to start? This isn't the place — try a Classroom or Creative route first, then come back.
You do not need to know what you want to make. If you teach, start with Classroom Activity. If you make things, start with Creative Maker. Both open onto everything else, and you can change routes any time. (We'd skip "Mechanism Curious" as a first stop unless taking systems apart is exactly why you came.)
What you don't need: an account · an install · a paid subscription · a coding background · required pre-reading · a final project idea. Everything core runs in a browser on frozen examples. Bring curiosity; the rest is optional.
