Intelligent Cities + 24 Hour City Project

Notes from the #iCities Forum and the 24 Hour City Project at the National Building Museum - 5th and 6th June, Washington DC

GPS enabled music

The first GPS encoded music album from the DC Based group Bluebrain will launch soon and will focus on the National Mall. Music changes as the listner moves from one monument to another. The group is working on future albums to explore Brooklyn’s Prospect Park & California’s historic Route 1 up the coast. This should be available for a free download on the Apple app store soon. Pretty cool. Here is a link to a story about it in CityPaper. - Scott Kratz

June 5 – 24 Hour City Project

The 24 Hour City Project is a wild experiment to hack the city.

Drawing on the talents of artists, architects, technologists, and entrepreneurs we will be running a rapid 24hr urban hackathon at the National Building Museum on Sunday June 5 to reveal the relationships between the built environment and technology.
Open to the public 11:30am – 4:30pm, 401 F Street NW, Washington DC. Come join the fun!
