[NetBehaviour] BBC data visualisation project
Apologies for cross-posting, please forward this announcement to those who may be interested. DataArt on BBC Backstage The BBC and the University of Westminster are pleased to inform you of the online launch of a major public data visualisation project DataArt on BBC Backstage. http://backstage.bbc.co.uk/data_art/index.php We believe that data is a vitally new reporting medium that tells us stories about our lives. Often this data is difficult to understand in its raw form of lists of numbers or text, but as we are exposed to it on a daily basis interpretation skills and access to information resources are increasingly important for us all. Converting this data into explorable visualisations helps us to comprehend it in ways that draw upon our innate capabilities to read information as images and patterns. As both a visual medium and a tool for reasoning, these visualisations straddle the disciplines of art, design, science and statistics. Who is DataArt for? DataArt aims to reach people who know little about visualisation but want to find out more, those looking at visualisation from an educational perspective and the existing developer community already engaged in producing their own work. What are we providing? DataArt provides public access to data visualizations of the BBC's online resources be they news information from around the world, web articles, music data or video and learning resources. For our launch we have released 4 visualisations for people to use immediately: Flared Music, 3d Documentary Explorer, SearchWeb, and News Globe. In addition we provide a learning resources section of the website giving further background information to the subject of visualisation including its histories and uses. This area will grow as the project develops and we hope will provide a rich source of educational material. For more advanced developers we have also provided some initial access to tools, tutorials and computer code you can download and modify. Over the coming months, more visualisations will be released leading to a second phase of the project in November 2010, which sees the release of further source code using a variety of different programming languages and software libraries. All our visualisations are based on BBC data and use sources that are already open to the public which you can use immediately for your own projects. We will also be creating new data sources and hope to provide access to BBC data not currently available to the public. Further releases will be publicised on our main site and via our facebook presence. Participate! We are interested in your thoughts and feedback whether you are a complete novice to the subject area, a student or an advanced practitioner. In the project blog we encourage you to tell us what you think about DataArt, share your experiences and publish links to work you have made with the material we have provided. We'll also pass on useful tips via the blog to help you get the most out of it. We'd also be delighted to hear your thoughts on via our facebook presence: http://www.facebook.com/pages/DataArt-BBC-Backstage/108238225894676 The project is funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council and is the result of collaboration between the Centre for Research in Education Art and Media (CREAM), at the University of Westminster, BBC Backstage and BBC Learning. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] Murdoch's latest move.
Is this the same group that does Sky News? Curious. Murdoch is as close to raw evil as I've seen - this isn't just for the UK - his right-wing attitudes in the US border on Nazism. It's cruel and a lot of people follow him. Between Fox News and the Wall Street Journal, etc., the horror is real. As far as I'm concerned he's a modern-day Goebbels. - Alan On Thu, 8 Jul 2010, marc garrett wrote: > Murdoch's latest move. > > Just received this from this from the 38 Degrees team. > > This post is only for those in the UK, as well as those who are > concerned regarding Murdoch creeping further into dominating our > culture, especially the Internet > > marc > > Dear marc, > > Rupert Murdoch is about to increase his stranglehold on the UK's media > by taking complete control of BSkyB.

[NetBehaviour] Murdoch's latest move.
Murdoch's latest move. Just received this from this from the 38 Degrees team. This post is only for those in the UK, as well as those who are concerned regarding Murdoch creeping further into dominating our culture, especially the Internet marc Dear marc, Rupert Murdoch is about to increase his stranglehold on the UK's media by taking complete control of BSkyB. He currently owns 40% and is trying to up that to 100%. This would be a disaster. It would give Murdoch even more political influence and could open the doors to biased, right-wing news reporting, like Fox News in the US. Together we can stop him. Vince Cable has the power to stop Murdoch's plan. As Business Secretary, he's got 17 working days to call the deal in for a review. [1] If enough of us stand up to Murdoch and build a big enough petition, we can persuade Cable to block the takeover. But the clock's ticking - we have just 3 weeks to get him to act. Take 30 seconds to sign our "Vince stand up to Murdoch" petition now: http://www.38degrees.org.uk/murdoch Murdoch thinks he has this deal sewn up. There are plenty of people in government who owe him big favours after his papers backed them during the election. Add to that the full force of Murdoch's media empire and you can be sure that Vince Cable will be feeling the pressure to cave in. We need to outweigh that pressure with people power. Thousands of us need to tell Vince Cable to stand up to Murdoch. 38 Degrees members have been challenging Rupert Murdoch's ambitions in the UK for months. Last year we fought his attacks on the BBC. During the election we spoke out against his scaremongering about a hung parliament and voting reform. Sky News' Kay Burley told us during the election that we should just "go home and watch it on Sky News". [2] We didn't then, and we don't have to now as Murdoch tries to tighten his grip on the UK.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Entropy
Hi Daniel, Thanks for sharing with us some of the context, structure & decisions around using The Eliza program. I was intrigued of its origin and found this info about it on wikipedia... "ELIZA is a computer program and an early example (by modern standards) of primitive natural language processing. ELIZA operated by processing users' responses to scripts, the most famous of which was DOCTOR, a simulation of a Rogerian psychotherapist. Using almost no information about human thought or emotion, DOCTOR sometimes provided a startlingly human-like interaction. ELIZA was written at MIT by Joseph Weizenbaum between 1964 to 1966." Also visited here (http://www.manifestation.com/neurotoys/eliza.php3) "ELIZA first appeared in the 60's, some people actually mistook her for human." >I'm a big fan of Rosa's work but knew little about the demoscene, >so it was great to read about it from her perspective and consider >its connection to Glitch Art. I'm watching where Rosa & JonCates and other peer glitchers take it, noticing they are bringing in their own flavour and calling it 'Critical Glitch Artware', and not Glitch Art - adding 'software art' element to it all (it seems). Oh yeah, before i forget - do you know http://runme.org/ ? I'm sure you do... I thought that your recent project would fit well amongst their software art repositories platform... >the breakdown of this data is visible as it runs: you see the >data corroding as Eliza's speech breaks down.

I look forward to the Linux compiler version of 'Entropy', in the meantime will hassle some one who has Microsoft/Windows and download it :-) Wishing you well. marc > Marc, > > Thanks.

I thought this would be particularly interesting to apply to the experience of programming, since programming often has a rigid quality. Programmers need to get things just right or the program will be defective if it runs at all -- there's little room for approximation. But, of course in the real world programs are buggy -- even when they're written perfectly (which rarely happens), they run on operating systems, use standard libraries, and these huge bodies of code written by other people have their own bugs and inconsistencies (luckily for us Glitch Art folks). All code is faulty somewhere, if you dig deeply enough. > > Entropy brings this chaotic nature to the forefront. When you code in Entropy, you need to let go of this sense of control -- the most you can hope for is that the person using your program gets the gist of what you're trying to do. To program in Entropy means treating all data as limited resources that have unspecified number of uses before they've veered far enough away from their original values that they're essentially random. > > The best Entropy programs are ones that are ambiguous and structurally flexible. So if a loop runs fifty times instead of forty-five, it won't crash -- they conform to its corrosive and approximating nature. When I wrote the Eliza program, since the same data is used over and over, the breakdown of this data is visible as it runs: you see the data corroding as Eliza's speech breaks down. > > Hope that answers your question > > I would love to write a Linux compiler -- will definitely let you know if/when it happens. > > -Daniel > > > ___ > NetBehaviour mailing list > NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org > http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] Aphex Twin - Equation.
Probably the best thing we're gonna see come out of spectrograph software. It's different, for sure, but just not all that impressive. Has he done anything more since?
