I am at the start of a residency that involves doing some workshops and sessions in a local prison.

I'm going to be trying various things out, mostly based around sound and radio initially but I'm really interested in the possibility of using Max as a way of developing sessions around the massive digital literacy problems among the prison population - as an accessible way into thinking about basic programming, but also just as a platform for me to pre-prepare ways we can explore some of the slightly more advanced and exciting possibilities through a non-intimidating UI...

Anyway, I thought I'd check in here to see if anyone on this forum has used Max in a prison setting in any way, and might be up for offering experiences, links to projects, inspirations etc. 

Many thanks for anything you're willing to share!
