canicula
august · cluj-napoca
canicula (n.) — the dog days of august. the city melts, the offices empty, everyone leaves for the seaside.
everyone except you.
no curriculum. no lectures. no "content".
just four weeks of heat, a room full of people who ship, and the thing you can't stop thinking about. you come in with an idea (or half of one), you leave with something real — and you show it at demo day.
how it works
- 1
apply
tell us what you want to build. rough is fine. honest is better.
- 2
build
four weeks together. weekly demos, late nights, people who get it.
- 3
demo
end of august: demo day. you show what you made. for real.
what you get
- a seat with builders, not spectators
- weekly demos & feedback that's actually honest
- mentors who've shipped things
- a deadline that makes it real
- demo day in front of the whole crew
who it's for
students, hackers, designers, dropouts, weirdos — anyone in (or near) cluj who'd rather spend august making something than watching other people make things. you don't need a startup. you need an obsession.
the seaside will still be there in september.
