SUMMARY:Brown Institute Mixer and Infosession
DESCRIPTION:Drop by and learn about the Brown Institute’s Magic Grants and other programs! \nThe David and Helen Gurley Brown Institute for Media Innovation is a joint effort between Stanford’s School of Engineering and Columbia Journalism School. Each year\, the Brown Institute awards close to $1M in grants to help you “follow your passion and experiment with new approaches to storytelling\,” to paraphrase Helen Gurley Brown. \nOur “Magic Grants” are a unique blend of technology and media. Grantees develop new ways to find and tell stories — producing platforms that extend our creativity\, or creating powerful new works of journalism. \n\nA Magic Grant can mean financial support for you and your team for up to a year (fellowships at Columbia\, research positions at Stanford)\nA Magic Grant can provide funding for your project — for production\, prototyping\, or purchasing services\, software or equipment\nA Magic Grant offers access to mentorship and our extensive alumni network\n\nThe Magic Grant program provides year-long funding awards of up to $150\,000 ($300\,000 for teams with members of both the Columbia and Stanford communities and their collaborators). In addition to funding\, grantees have access to a distinguished advisory and mentoring group and an extensive and inspiring alumni network. \nThis information session is an introduction to the Brown Institute. We’ll cover Magic Grants as well as the other programs we are offering this year.

SUMMARY:Points Unknown - Session IV (Spring)
DESCRIPTION:News unfolds in places and every newsworthy event is shaped by the details of location. Those details might include the specifics of a neighborhood as it is today or of the history leading to its current configurations. Alongside the development of web technologies\, journalistic organizations have incorporated web-based maps to enhance reader engagement with stories. But these interactions haven’t always been easy to produce. Points Unknown will train journalism students in GIS and mapping techniques to analyze and visualize spatial information. \nTo conclude our series\, we will switch gears and utilize Google Earth Pro and Adobe Illustrator to export high resolution 3D earth imagery and add annotation layers to it. This is a very common technique for visualizing movement and space\, and we will walk students through the process from start to finish. \nRegistration for this event has closed.

SUMMARY:Computation + Journalism Conference
DESCRIPTION:News outlets rely on computation to tell some of the biggest stories of our time. They collect data when official sources have not. They build statistical models to uncover disparities\, previously ignored. And they craft visualizations to reveal new dimensions to a story. Some newsrooms have expertise in-house to produce this work\, while others depend on collaborations with outside researchers. \nThe Computation+Journalism Conference (C+J) is a venue where journalists and researchers meet. In this setting\, news organizations can share experiences with computational and social scientists\, exploring new research or “innovations in practice” that can serve the public good. At C+J we strive for symmetry in our talks and panels — journalism’s reporting conventions can be both solutions to computational problems as well as sources of new research questions. \n\nAnnounce the Call for Participation: March 18\nSubmission deadline: May 9\nDecisions on contributed and refereed talks: May 13\nConference dates: June 9 (half day)\, 10 (full day)\, and possibly 11 (half day) \nMore details here. Registration TBA. \n

SUMMARY:Points Unknown - Session IV (Spring)
DESCRIPTION:News unfolds in places and every newsworthy event is shaped by the details of location. Those details might include the specifics of a neighborhood as it is today or of the history leading to its current configurations. Alongside the development of web technologies\, journalistic organizations have incorporated web-based maps to enhance reader engagement with stories. But these interactions haven’t always been easy to produce. Points Unknown will train journalism students in GIS and mapping techniques to analyze and visualize spatial information. \nTo conclude our series\, we will switch gears and utilize Google Earth Pro and Adobe Illustrator to export high resolution 3D earth imagery and add annotation layers to it. This is a very common technique for visualizing movement and space\, and we will walk students through the process from start to finish. \nRegister to Attend

SUMMARY:Exploring and Mapping NYC's Building Energy Data Through Programming
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of NYC Open Data Week 2022. \nWe’ve all seen the energy grades posted at the entrances of large buildings in New York City. But how does one building compare to its neighbor\, or to buildings in other parts of the city? And how is the city doing overall? Are grades improving from year to year? Do newer buildings outperform older ones? Are there any interesting stories buried in the data? \nThis workshop will teach you mapmaking through programming — Python will be our language of choice\, and we will introduce powerful packages like Pandas\, Geopandas and Altair to explore geographic data. Our final product will be a Colab Notebook (similar to a Jupyter Notebook) with maps and graphs exploring the distribution of energy grades from 2020 and 2021 across the city and highlighting specific investigative leads. \nThis session will be led by Juan Francisco Saldarriaga\, Senior Data & Design Researcher at the Brown Institute for Media Innovation at Columbia University’s School of Journalism. \nNo prior programming experience is required. \nRegister to Attend

SUMMARY:Anger + Hope - The founding of NPR and lessons for the future of public media
DESCRIPTION:RSVP here – Streaming at ohyay.co/s/npr\nBill Siemering is a radio visionary. Sixty years ago\, Siemering was hired to transform WBFO from a student-run college radio club into a professional station. Because of the experiments in radio that he led at WBFO throughout the 1960s\, Siemering was invited to serve on the first board of what would become National Public Radio. He was also invited to write the original mission statement of NPR—while he was still working in Buffalo. Siemering went on to help create NPR’s flagship program\, All Things Considered and also what we know today as Fresh Air. Fifty years later\, Siemering is still passionate about the power of radio\, now doing much of his work in the developing world. \nNationally renowned broadcast journalist Susan Stamberg is a special correspondent for NPR. Stamberg is the first woman to anchor a national nightly news program\, and has won every major award in broadcasting. She has been inducted into the Broadcasting Hall of Fame and the Radio Hall of Fame. An NPR “founding mother\,” Stamberg has been on staff since the network began in 1971. Beginning in 1972\, Stamberg served as co-host of NPR’s award-winning newsmagazine All Things Considered for 14 years. She then hosted Weekend Edition Sunday\, and now reports on cultural issues for Morning Edition and Weekend Edition Saturday.

SUMMARY:Points Unknown - Session I (Spring)
DESCRIPTION:News unfolds in places and every newsworthy event is shaped by the details of location. Those details might include the specifics of a neighborhood as it is today or of the history leading to its current configurations. Alongside the development of web technologies\, journalistic organizations have incorporated web-based maps to enhance reader engagement with stories. But these interactions haven’t always been easy to produce. Points Unknown will train journalism students in GIS and mapping techniques to analyze and visualize spatial information. \nFor Points Unknown: Session I (Spring)\, students will be provided an overview of spatial data and what constitutes a map. Following a presentation on concepts\, we will introduce the software we will use throughout the spring module (QGIS)\, and begin by making a basic map. \nRegister to Attend
