Monthly Visualisers Gathering
– c-base Raumstation, Rungestrasse 20, (2nd backyard), Berlin
Hello visionaries! Because our host c-base doesn't allow presentations on Mondays anymore, we will try something different and move the event to Friday. Join us for a drink to data-vis our way into the weekend! We are developers, designers, data scientists and other people interested in data vis, and we usually chat and gather around in a very informal way. This time, we will also experiment with lightning talks. So far, we have two of them: 1. Daniel Kirsch (@kirel (https://twitter.com/kirel)) will talk about the recreation of chroropleth maps in R. http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/4/f/f/600_435394047.jpeg 2. Robert Penney will talk about Open Earth, a google earth style viewer with the ability to move up and down in time and view historical information and sources. http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/4/f/5/600_435394037.jpeg If you want to present something, send an email to Lisa: lisacharlotterost@gmail.com. You're very welcome to talk 10 minutes or less about... • A visualisation project you're currently working on and for that you need some feedback, or requests for help for your own project • A project you've just finished and what you learned while working on it • Work done by others or technologies you want to introduce to others • Something else that other people might find interesting. Again, send an email to Lisa: lisacharlotterost@gmail.com Since "a picture is worth a thousand words", and since the idea of the meetup is to be very practical and hands-on, you are encouraged to bring your tools, being them digital or analog (paper & markers)! See you there!
