Podcasts about jer thorp

Birders know about Big Data. We're all familiar with eBird and the Avian Knowledge Network, but the Christmas Bird Count or the Breeding Bird Survey are giant pools of data that inform everything from conservation decisions to where to spend time tomorrow morning. But how can we use that data to encourage new birders or convince policy-makers to care about birds. It's something data artist Jer Thorp likes to think about. He is among other things, the New York Time's first Data Artist in residence, and the creator of Bincoulars and Binomials and the author of the upcoming We Were Out Counting Birds. Also, a new discovery about bird brains could have huge impacts about what we can learn about bird intelligence.

Happy holidays, friends! We will be back with a new episode in January 2025. In the meantime, enjoy this favorite from our archives! ----- [originally aired Jun 14, 2023] Have you heard of Octopolis? It's a site off the coast of Australia where octopuses come together. It's been described as a kind of underwater "settlement" or "city." Now, smart as octopuses are, they are not really known for being particularly sociable. But it seems that, given the right conditions, they can shift in that direction. So it's not a huge leap to wonder whether these kinds of cephalopod congregations could eventually give rise to something else—a culture, a language, maybe something like a civilization.  This is the idea at the center of Ray Nayler's new book, The Mountain in the Sea. It's both a thriller of sorts and a novel of ideas; it's set in the near future, in the Con Dao archipelago of Vietnam. It grapples with the nature of intelligence and meaning, with the challenges of interspecies communication and companionship, and ultimately with what it means to be human.  Here, Ray and I talk about how he got interested in cephalopods and how he came to know the Con Dao archipelago. We discuss some of the choices he made as an author—choices about what drives the octopuses in his book to develop symbols and about what those symbols are like. We consider the major human characters in his book, in particular two ambitious researchers who embody very different approaches to understanding minds. We also talk a fair bit about AI—another central character in the book, after all, is a super-intelligent android. Along the way, Ray and I touch on Arrival, biosemiotics, the nature of symbols, memory and storytelling, embodiment, epigenetics, cephalopod camouflage, exaptation, and the sandbox that is speculative fiction.  This episode is obviously something a little different for us. Ray is a novelist, after all, but he's also an intellectual omnivore, and this conversation, maybe more than any other we've had on the show, spans three major branches of mind—human, animal, and machine. If you enjoy this episode, note that The Mountain in the Sea just came out in paperback, with a jaw-droppingly cool cover, I'll add. I highly recommend that you check it out. One more thing, while I have you: If you're enjoying Many Minds, we would be most grateful for your help in getting the word out. You might consider sharing the show with a friend or a colleague, writing us a review on Apple Podcasts, or leaving us a rating on Spotify or Apple.

Each year, there are one or two books that deeply resonate with me and become sticky in that I'm thinking about the book often, bringing it up in conversations, and sending out unsolicited recommendations for executives and researchers in my network to check it out. Jer Thorp's "Living in Data: A Citizen's Guide to a Better Information Future" was that book for me in 2021 so I was delighted to host Jer for a conversation on the OODAcast. Jer Thorp is an artist, writer and teacher living in New York City. He is best known for designing the algorithm to place the nearly 3,000 names on the 9/11 Memorial in Manhattan.

Jer is one of the world's foremost data artists, and is a leading voice for the ethical use of big data. Jer is like the Indiana Jones of data, thriving not only in the realm of data analysis, but traveling the world to explore new ways to bring data into our local and global decision-making process. In this OODAcast, we go deep on a variety of issues to include: Jer's origin story and career experience The risks of data bias, adjacencies, and exclusion The role of data in understanding our relationship with nature How we envision and build better futures Working as citizens to derive benefit from our own data to improve our lives Lots of great stories about his data adventures and lessons learned along the way including how he was almost killed by a hippo Additional Bio Details: Jer's data-inspired artwork has been shown around the world, including most recently in New York's Times Square, at the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan, at the Ars Electronica Center in Austria, and at the National Seoul Museum in Korea.

We tend to think of data as neutral, but it's more than just raw, blunt facts. The choice of what data to gather and how it's used, is political, but there are approaches to data for the collective good. Host Nora Young discusses the politics of data with Jer Thorp, author of Living in Data: A Citizen's Guide to a Better Information Future; and data for peacebuilding with Branka Panic, Founder and Executive Director of AI for Peace.

Today, I talk with Jer Thorp and Yanni Loukissas about Mapping and COVID-19.  Yanni Alexander Loukissas is Associate Professor of Digital Media in the School of Literature, Media, and Communication at Georgia Tech, where he directs the Local Data Design Lab. His new book, All Data Are Local: Thinking Critically in a Data-Driven Society (MIT Press, 2019), is addressed to a growing audience of practitioners who want to work with unfamiliar sources both effectively and ethically. He is also the author of Co-Designers: Cultures of Computer Simulation in Architecture (Routledge, 2012) and co-editor of The DigitalSTS Handbook (Princeton, 2019). He has taught at Cornell, MIT, and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. Originally trained as an architect at Cornell, he subsequently attended MIT, where he received a Master of Science and a PhD in Design and Computation. He completed postdoctoral work at the MIT Program in Science, Technology and Society. Jer Thorp is an artist, writer and teacher living in New York City.

What do Dobros and datasets have in common? We're about to find out. On this episode we talk with A'yen Tran and Jer Thorp of the New York-based Office for Creative Research to hear about their folksy initiative -- a finalist in the 2017 Knight Cities Challenge, no less -- to strengthen civic engagement via bluegrass music. Mystified? Well, the modern wave of data in municipal policymaking can sometimes mystify, too, at least when put in the form of charts and graphs for public consumption. Could data-fied mountain string music -- and lessons from the past that changed the history of bluegrass -- strike a new chord? Listen and learn why this novel approach is a Knight Cities finalist.

Hey yo ... super cool guest today on Data Stories. We have data artist Jer Thorp for a whole episode on Data Art and Visualization. We managed to catch him before he leaves for a deep dive in a submarine next week. Jer is former artist in residence at New York Times R&D Labs and now he is the co-founder of the Office For Creative Research, a studio/lab that mixes science and art. Among many other things he is the creator of the algorithm and software tool "to aid in the placement of the nearly 3,000 names on the 9/11 Memorial in Manhattan" and Cascade, a tool to visualize "the sharing activity of New York Times content over social networks." In this episode we talk about his past and new projects, teaching art and vis and the many intersections between art and science. Links - The IEEE VIS'14 Art Program (that's going to be in Paris) - NYU ITP Data Art Course - Cascade (vis of NYT sharing activity) - Shakespeare Machine (earstudio | video on vimeo) - Jer's HBR article on "Visualization as Process, Not Output" - Collection of vis development process images from OCR - Example of Data Performance: Thousands of Exhausted Things (OCResearch and The Elevator Repair Service) - Hans Rosling's TED Talk "The Best Stats You've Ever Seen" - Eyeo Festival
