7 in 7 is bold scheme to do seven creative projects in seven days. The Resident Researchers at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications program pioneered this venture beginning June 8th, 2008. The mandate was as follows:

  • Do a creative project every day for seven straight days, starting Sunday, June 8th
  • Projects must be completed in a day, so they need to be as compact as they are creative.
  • Each project needs a name and documentation posted at the end of the day. It should be a stand-alone accomplishment.

A preview of project ideas included Physical Flight Tracker, Door Twitter Sign, Salad Dress, Robot Phone, Window Ghosts and an album about a dangerous water park. Resulting projects can be seen in the 7 in 7 Blog and on MAKE magazine’s blog as well.
