Sense Your City…

Gadget Guru is a short weekly radio show on World Radio Switzerland that I do with Tony Johnston.

Here’s the show from April 28th, 2015:

Here’s the usual set of links & videos from the show:

The Data Canvas project takes environmental sensor data from across cities and makes it available for use by innovative applications.

Imagine a cheerful weather history of Geneva

Or a real time 3D view of each city:

The winning projects are all available online.

One of my favourites is the Sonic Particles 2.0 application, which turns the real time sensor data into music, so you can hear what the weather is like right now…

You can immerse yourself into this world of data at L’Abri, Place de la Madelaine in the Centre of Geneva on the 28th, 29th of April and the 5th and 6th of May. Everything is in English.

See you next week !
