Hi all,

 

RSNZ is currently hosting a series of discussions on the theme of Big Data. These discussions are run by Kim Hill and will be broadcast on Radio NZ.

 

Tonight, we have a few friends of CC:

    Erika Pearson, Department of Film, Media and Communication, University of Otago

    Bronwyn Holloway-Smith, Director, Creative Freedom Foundation and contemporary artist

 

Then, on April 3, we have three more friends of CC:

 

Open data – letting it loose on the crowd

   Julian Carver, founder, Seradigm; spokesperson for Open New Zealand

    Ed Corkery, Chief Executive, Koordinates, facilitating an online resource to access to geospatial datasets

    Peter Griffin, Manager, Science Media Centre; technology commentator for Radio New Zealand and the New Zealand Listener
