We have roughly 9 plenary slots. These could be either solo keynotes or panels. The first two slots on the first day should probably be keynotes and should be rock starts.

Speakers and Themes

Keynote Ideas

Cleared out some of the longer list of speakers that are not really under consideration and put them here. Keep those fresh ideas coming!

We have roughly 9 plenary slots. These could be either solo keynotes or panels. The first two slots on the first day should probably be keynotes and should be rock starts.

We have 3 different sections of breakouts, with roughly 6 different concurrent sessions planned, for a total of 18 breakout sessions.

The list below is for individuals to be either a keynote or to lead a panel discussion (mostly keynote) Farther down there are draft potential sessions.


Consider Strongly

  • Lev Manovich, Director, Software Studies Initiative, University of California, San Diego YouTube
  • Kate Crawford, Microsoft Research. We could ask her talk about researcher use of data. She also works with Danah Boyd. Watch vid here.
  • George Oates, Art Director at Stamen Design. Formerly at Internet Archive and Flickr




  • Arfon Smith, Director of Citizen Science, Adler Planetarium, and Technical Lead for The Zooniverse interview -- could also be part of a collaboration or crowdsourcing panel
  • Jessica McKellar, Python Software Foundation
  • Jay Parikh is the VP of infrastructure engineering at Facebook, but inviting him to talk about the Open Compute Project. Here’s his keynote from a conference last year. He touched a little on scaling data centers, so we maybe we could get him interested in our digigreen panel from last year and comment on it.

Crowdsourcing

  • From Andrew Turner: panels on Crowdsourcing, particularly perhaps Geo-crowdsourcing. I'm thinking a discussion like for OSM, particularly Mikel Maron (local in DC, founder of Humanitarian OpenStreetMap). He helps impoverished communities work with OSM such as the Kibera slums in Nairobi, or citizens of Myanmar, Philippines, etc. If citizens & hackers are gathering their own data who is thinking about how this is preserved (each iteration) as well as to ensure they don't go back to a blank map?
