Char Stiles and Chirag Davé were awarded a COSA micro-grant for their work on their live-coding environment called Code Augmented Reality Live (CARL). CARL was designed for  “algoraves” where users can participate in a live coding event to experience, in augmented reality, the very 3D environments they are creating in real time. This type of mobile AR technology is often proprietary, and Stiles and Davé seek to open this up to a wider set of participants by making their software open source. With their grant, Stiles and Davé have worked on increasing CARL’s usability, as well as the creation of more comprehensive documentation that can be shared with the public.
