PublicRadioCamp
Minnesota Public Radio produces tons of really interesting content, data, audio, meta-data and feeds. PublicRadioCamp will be a day spent collaboratively remixing and mashing up these goodies.
In addition to their public feeds and data-sources -- we're putting together a catalog of these to post here soon -- we'll have the same highly-granular access to audio-clips, transcriptions, photos, etc. used by their own newsroom. Their newsroom uses them to create their on-air and web-stories. What could you do with them?
Expect studio tours and other goodies. Details forthcoming.
It's for you if mashups like Chicago Crimes, Twittervision or Google's close-captioned powered TV search inspire you; if you're passionate about social-technology applied to news and cultural coverage; if you want to explore remix-culture or you want to explore what's behind the radio and web content MPR produces.
Internet access and lunch will be provided by ipHouse.
To RSVP, add yourself to the list below. If prompted for a password use "c4mp" (minus the quotes). If you have any special areas of interest (e.g., maps-mashups, remix, podcasting, tagging news content) add a note next to your name. We'll make a pass through here in a few weeks to start to organize and brainstorm project ideas ahead of time.
