Swiss Open Cultural Data Hackathon 2016

The open cultural data hackathon brings people with different backgrounds together for two days at the Basel University Library, where they are invited to interact around specific topics, share experiences, and develop concepts and software prototypes.

Typical participants include software programmers, researchers, data providers, designers, artists, and other people interested in open cultural data.

There will also be Wikipedia introductory courses and editing sessions for those who would like to learn how to contribute (cultural) content to the free online encylopedia (held in German).

Further information about the programme and the open datasets made available for the hackathon can be found at the hackathon website: make.opendata.ch/wiki/event:2016-07
