DataBeers - Torino

Did understand something a bit better through the lens of data analysis? Do you use data analysis in your everyday practice? Have you ever built a service on data? Do you have any kind of artistic data driven project? Are you obsessed with data at any level? And finally do you like beer? The boom of big data is only an extensive continuation of a classic field of data analysis, and we want to discuss about this with beers and interested people in Torino.  We have been inspired by our friends in Madrid: @databeers - databeers.tumblr.com

DataBeers Torino 15 (RELOADED)

Caro Data (and beer) lover!

In questi mesi abbiamo custodito "al fresco" le birre e tenuto "in caldo" i nostri relatori, nell'attesa di poter, finalmente, riproporre l'evento che dal 2014 unisce la passione per i dati, gli eventi di community e la birra.

Come avrete intuito siamo di nuovo in pista per il 15° DataBeers Torino!

Confermiamo quindi il panel di speaker presentato prima dell'estate:

• Corrado Monti - Postdoctoral Researcher at ISI Foundation - “Predicting and Analyzing Donald Trump support on social media”

• Eleonora Priori - Università degli Studi di Torino - “Agent-based models: un laboratorio di simulazione per comprendere il mondo”

• Livio Bioglio - Università degli Studi di Torino -  “What emotions TV shows trigger in their audiences?”

• Matteo Moretti - Social designer and Founder at Sheldon.studio - “Mapping Diversities” [INTERVENTO DA REMOTO]

... la location [Toolbox Coworking in Via Agostino da Montefeltro 2, Torino], l'orario 18:30 - 20:30

e naturalmente la birra Estrella!

ATTENZIONE!!! Le norme Covid-19 ci impongono una capienza massima di 50 persone nella sala ed il possesso del Green Pass per accedere agli spazi di Toolbox.

Quindi registratevi responsabilmente!

Ci vediamo il prossimo 6 ottobre!

Caro Data (and beer) lover!

Ormai un mese fa abbiamo pregustato l'idea di rivederci dal vivo ed abbiamo assaporato giorno per giorno l'attesa, mentre ci occupavamo dell'organizzazione dell'evento.

È quindi con immenso dispiacere che dobbiamo rimandare tale momento

Quando ci siamo imbarcati nell'organizzazione di questo quindicesimo episodio, eravamo consci di come la situazione sanitaria fosse a rischio di rapido cambiamento. Il contesto estivo era però quello con maggiori garanzie ed eravamo lontani dal pensare ad una nuova impennata di contagi così ravvicinata.

Siamo andati avanti nonostante i primi timidi segnali nell'aumento dei positivi, ma oggi, alla luce delle ultime proiezioni e sebbene non ci siano restrizioni in atto, preferiamo far prevalere la responsabilità e la sicurezza rispetto al desiderio di re-incontrarci. Il nostro target primario ricade del resto in quella fascia della popolazione ancora in attesa o in procinto di completare il percorso vaccinale e trovarci nella situazione di aver alimentato la diffusione del virus anche di un singolo caso andrebbe contro il nostro senso civico.

Questo è un arrivederci a presto, fiduciosi che le vaccinazioni e la scienza ci aiutino a debellare questo male.

Abbiamo allertato i nostri speaker e stoccato al sicuro le birre. Non appena possibile, siatene certi, avrete di nuovo notizie da noi.

Intanto buona estate con un pizzico di rammarico e con la convinzione che capirete la nostra posizione.

GLI ORGANIZZATORI:

Christian, Giovanni, Laura, Michele, Roberta e Stefania.

After a long period of abstinence, the desire to meet live is as strong as that of listening to a nice presentation on data projects while drinking a good beer.

We are verifying the feasibility of a Turin Databeers in presence (no Zoom/Meet,Skype/..., no online webinar, as in the past days before Pandemic), and as usual we start from the most important thing: the Speakers!

If you have a data project to tell (datascience, datavisualization, open data, bigdata, ...), write us an email with a captivating title and a short abstract.
