Announcing PublicRadioCamp

June 27th, 2008

I’m pleased to announce PublicRadioCamp, a new community event from Minnesota Public Radio and MinneBar/MinneDemo.

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’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?

Details

What/When/Where: PublicRadioCamp will be held on Saturday, July 12 starting at 9:00am at MPR’s studios in the UBS Forum.

Who: 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.

Expect studio tours and other goodies. Details forthcoming.

Please RSVP by adding yourself to the wiki.

    Dan, I meant to thank you again (and publicly) for working on this. The insight and skills of folks who were there made it one of my favorite days in recent memory. Know it was very cool and very appreciated.
