Bootcamp Digitalent 2019: Immagina la tua Smart City

Questa mattina ho avuto il piacere di partecipare, grazie all’invito di Forma Mentis e del grandissimo Luigi Santapaga, ad un meraviglioso laboratorio organizzato in sede SAS nel contesto della Milano Digital Week: Immagina la tua Smart City.

L’iniziativa era destinata a una moltitudine di meravigliosi ragazzi, principalmente delle scuole superiori, con cui abbiamo lavorato (io personalmente infiltrata in uno dei gruppi) sul grande tema della digital week di quest’anno, ovvero l’intelligenza urbana, e in particolare sugli aspetti legati a:

ambiente;
cultura;
divertimento;
mobilità;
salute e benessere;
socialità.

Siamo stati accompagnati dall’innovation team di SAS, un’azienda che sto imparando a conoscere al di là delle loro soluzioni di business intelligence e data analytics, per la passione che sta dimostrando nel supportare il Forma Mentis Innovaction Award, nella splendida cornice della loro sede di via Darwin 20, qui a Milano.

Sono emerse le soluzioni più varie, da una splendida applicazione dell’intelligenza artificiale per selezionare i reali interessi del cittadino sulla base dei suoi feedback a spunti per api robotiche, tegole smart e sistemi di realtà immersiva per la socialità, lo sport e le attività culturali. Il frigorifero ha cercato di ucciderci anche in questa occasione (è normale, parlando di Internet of Things) ma i ragazzi hanno ribattuto con riflessioni di grande spessore, tutto illustrato dalla splendida Laura che, in tempo reale, ha riempito di segni i due cartelloni dell’evento. Grazie, SAS!

But for pursuit of virtue and of knowledge

I’m sure you’ve read enough analysis of Nolan’s Odyssey to last a lifetime, and you don’t need another European ranting that he changed stuff, so I’m not going to. Instead, I’d like to talk about the movie in itself, as an independent work, granting the
