No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The Peeper is among the semifinalists for Georgia Tech’s 2017 Margaret Guthman Musical Instrument Competition, which showcases the innovation taking place where engineering and musicianship intersect. For this instrument, Ballerinas wear an electroacoustic "tutu” that uses light sensors that enable them to produce sounds through the interaction of their movements and the surrounding light.
