So my two weeks in Spain are over and Ive spent my first few days back in sunny stormy Yorkshire recovering from mystery manflu.

I went to Madrid and the Medialab with very few assumptions about what Id end up doing. I was very excited at the prospect of spending two focused weeks on Miguel’s Humanflows project, and learning as much as possible in that time. It would be safe to say I wasnt dissapointed. In fact I was pretty overwhelmed by how good it was and what I learnt!

As well enjoying the fine company of my fellow group members, I felt quite humbled in the presence of some incredibly talented people who were working on other interesting projects. here are some of those who I spent time but I didnt get to mention in my other post about visualizar. Elie Zananiri (tweetpad), Irad Lee [other projects] (Spamology), who’s haunting live composition is still in my head. Not forgetting to mention the fantastic Julian Oliver and Ricard Marxer Piñón who were on hand to offer help every step of the way.
Although I’m very glad to be back and looking forward to exciting projects here and keeping in touch with a few of the people I met who werent from spain, Im longing to go back to spain soon and spend some more time there.

Nathan actually summed up the two weeks better and he’s kindly hosted the project, so here is the direct link to his post.

Three designers, a Statistician and Migration Inflows Data

and heres the project in action, its basically the kiosk app I put together for presenting the project, but it has the definitive why’s and hows! Thanks again to Nathan for hosting it, to Miguel for allowing me to be a collaborator on his project. The Medialab for being such good hosts and for my school, ADA at the University of Huddersfield for funding me to go.
