Here is an example of how an internet shutdown in Iraq based on IODA data sounds like: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Z1TFc1AyqI4
During the hackathon, our colleague Arturo created "The Sound of Internet Shutdowns": a sonification project which transforms some of the features of the IODA dataset into synthesized sounds.

The hackathon participants worked on using OONI data to investigate IPv6 connectivity, data triangulation to infer censorship or shutdown events, and on correlating alarms across multiple datasets.
We were very impressed with the results produced by the participants! ❤️

A live recording of Bow & Blade from the International Medieval Congress at the University of Leeds. In this lighthearted episode with lots of audience participation, Michael Livingston and Kelly DeVries answer questions about the Hundred Years' War, battlefields, and why William Wallace is a bad guy.
Farewell to Leeds! Fun conference, and I'll miss Kapow Coffee and The Ship pub (est. 1755). Both are hidden away in alleys off Lands Lane downtown.
If you're at #imc2023 my talk resetting the history of the ROTAS/SATOR square to include the key Coptic tradition should be available online.

tl;dr:
- SfM is not solved
- global desc similarity is hard
- orientation invariance for SuperGlue is easy
- PixSfM is good idea, but need follow-ups
- KeyNetAffNet

One of my favourite events that I've done at the International Medieval Congress - a roundtable discussion on the Middle Ages in Modern Games, chaired brilliantly by Mariana Lopez and with Katherine Lewis, Thom Gobbitt, and Blair Apgar in the discussion.
Our discussion was wide but included routes for historians to engage with game developers and communities and whether the high medieval period's centrality to nation-making makes it less used in RPGs!
