Starting in November we will investigate the matter of Social Media Mining in Berlin. Therefore Kaiserslautern and the new Berlin office of DFKI will be the sites where we conduct this research. The move to Berlin helps a lot to get into closer personal contact to other scientific and commercial players over there.
We will join the 1st Open Web Meetup at Goldberg Bar co-organised by Alex Korth of DAI-Lab and Cityfinger.
23-25 July, 2009: SMC2009 - 6th Sound and Music Computing Conference,
co-organised and chaired by Fabien (Gouyon) / INESC. This event will be the melting pot for cutting-edge research on the future of the sonic space. Summer School included!
Please tell your students and check the site for the complete schedule. As far as I have experienced Porto under the guideline of Fabien this should be a top-notch event in 2009!
I am off for a Short Term Research Mission on Reality Mining. I will collect multimodal sensor streams including audio, GHz traffic, GPS and physiological data. The data gathering takes place outside the lab following the tradition of ethnographic research and combining it with reality mining.
More details about the project are documented in the dedicated weblog http://urbansync.wordpress.com.
The mission is funded by the EU under COST-ONLINE_STSM-IC0601-3125.
