The concept

4 Weeks to go, here is the final concept of my thesis project...I would love to write more about it - but it's just far to little time left. There will be a complete report published in summer, and my portfolio homepage will be updated as well.

So, here is the so-called 5 weeks before presentation:

MA thesis work

I haven't really posted things about my degree work here on the blog, as I mostly use SlideShare to share my presentations...So far we had three of them:

The kick-off, end of January:



A research presentation, end of February:

The mid-review, end of March:

Colorforecast

This is a pretty nice project I stumbled upon doing research on monitoring. It uses webcams and some code to evaluate colors people wear in different "fashion"- cities. Not that I am to much into fashion, but I think it is a nice example on how playful interactive projects can have a value for people who may not even know what that is :)

Colorforecast

a workshop on workshops

This morning we had a workshop on how to conduct a workshop. It ended up being more like an open lecture/discussion with input from all participants. Main outcome: There is no other way learning how to do a good workshop than doing a workshop. One nice book-resource many people may not know (at least i didn't ;)

"The Idea Agent" by  Jonas Michanek and Andréas Breiler...There is also a homepage about it here

revival!

As it's been quite a while since the last post, I will try to wrap up what happened since. Below I will put in content in chronological order. I did some more posts, so make sure to browse back!

I just started with my Master-Thesis. In collaboration with the German Nature Conservation Union (NABU) I am working on crowd-sourcing data to track and survey activities and development of nature protection areas. As i can't promise how often I will update this blog until I am done - my slideshare account is the best way to follow, as I am uploading all my presentations there.

(This is what I see while writing these lines)
