Sexy Dirty Data: Making Your Metrics Matter

Event Interactive 2011
Format Solo
Organizer Wendy Levy BAVC
Description What happens when the Director of the White House Office of Social Innovation, the Director of Programming of one of the countries leading media tech nonprofits, and a visionary data viz expert from Google get together? At this presentation, you'll hear down and dirty talk about the new IMPACT DASHBOARD from the people who built it: it's a super user-friendly cloud app with a Python backend that collects, hosts and visualizes your data in real time, right on your website and your phone. Imagine browser-based reporting with rich visuals and rich interactivity, no plug-in dependencies, and fully open source. No more dry reporting of metrics! No more measuring irrelevant data! No more boring spreadsheets that don't engage and inspire your audiences! This new interface is designed to help any artist or organization or company make a measurable difference in the world. And it's free. SXSW will be the launch of the US public Beta.
