The interactive adventure "IT Hero's Path" combines entertainment and educational formats, dispelling the myth that only people with deep technical knowledge can develop in IT. The world of technology is multifaceted, both representatives of a technical mindset and humanities will find something to their liking in it," said Anastasia Sharova, head of the exhibition activities department of the capital's Department of Information Technology.
Fight the dragon and become a lord
According to the legend, an ordinary user who accidentally became a participant in a tournament for experienced IT specialists gets to the "IT Hero's Path". By solving puzzles, the exhibition's guests learn more about the world of technology, improve their skills, get acquainted with IT professions, and in the finale they reach the "IT Knowledge Treasury", where they meet face to face with the tournament organizer – the Dragon. You can take the "IT Hero's Path" six days a week: from Tuesday to Thursday the exhibition is open from 12:00 to 20:00, and from Friday to Sunday – from 11:00 to 21:00.
The exhibition consists of three parts. The first, "Getting Ready for an IT Adventure", begins with introductory interactives. The user will have to pack an IT specialist's bag, play an IT Tamagotchi and go from junior to senior. Festival guests will also develop stress resistance skills. During the game "Confident PC User", participants will have to enter text, ignoring or eliminating various interferences – from pop-up notifications to noise from the neighbor's renovation upstairs.
Neurohorse from the Magic Forest
In the second part of the exhibition, the "IT Grove", visitors will find themselves in a magical forest. Each exhibit introduces a specific profession and allows you to try yourself in it, and also tells you in which city digital projects representatives of this field work. For example, in the interactive "Catching Bugs" guests will have to try themselves as a tester and find the maximum number of errors so that all buttons and sections of the site or application work correctly.
Another interactive exhibit, “Neurohorse,” will tell you how artificial intelligence works. Using neural networks, participants will generate a digital horse for themselves by writing a prompt with its characteristics. It will help the hero overcome obstacles on the way to victory.
You can get acquainted with the basics of programming and logic thanks to the interactive installation "Tame the Code": guests will have to program the steps of the character on the screen so that he avoids traps, goes around the dragon and finds a way out of the labyrinth. This game describes the algorithm for building all digital products using a simple example: millions of lines of code begin with just one. You can learn more about different IT professions on the page "IT-grove".
The final test awaits visitors in the Treasury: here they will face their fears and fight the Dragon. There, schoolchildren and future applicants will get acquainted with the IT areas of the country's leading universities, and students will get acquainted with the internship program at the Moscow Government in the IT City area.
