Hi,
In my effort to more create more meaningful computer mediated experiences for me and other and to use Pharo as a medium for that I have proposed the following project:
- Name: Data Kitchen: Frictionless data, moldable tools, pocket
infrastructures & permanent workshops for community empowerment
- url:
https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/data/entries/data-kitchen-frictionle...
It combines the ideas of moldable tools, agile visualization in this community with some of other like frictionless data, by Open Knowledge Foundation and what I call "pocket infrastructures". Any feedback is welcomed. You can make it here in this list, but if you can made it on their platform, from a simple "heart" (+1) or drop me a line, it would be greatly appreciated and it will help to make more visible the project.
I really like the idea of using Pharo/ROASSAL for data viz especially in the context of southern countries (you talk about about Global South in your document). Having a portable environment is definitively a plus in the context of countries where the bandwidth is really limited. My lab is working with developing countries (including south-america) and we could exchange some private emails on how to sustain such a project. I'm interested by such tool in the context of health and/or crisis issues for example.
Regards,
