A Hack a Day… Saturday, 5 November 2011

Organized by: Dat Zou Jij Wel Willen Weten [Wouldn’t You Like to Know]

Registration via rsvp@impakt.nl

The objective of the ‘Dat Zou jij Wel Willen Weten/Wouldn’t You Like to Know foundation is to create access to all information that should be out in the open in the public interest. However, what is more valuable than information itself? The rough data behind it. This is because the way in which you interpret this data determines the type of information you get out of it. In this Sweatshop we will work with the rough data of municipalities, provinces and other governmental institutions.

Come and join us for a data wrestle with other idealists, binary code heroes and pizza lovers. Develop a concept, build an application and/or visualize our own interpretation. We will provide the experts for technical assistance. All results will be presented at a later stage of the festival. Nerds Unite! www.datzoujijwelwillenweten.nl
