RSVP BELOW!
To close out the year, we have Jonathan Nolan joining us to talk about city density.
Thank you to NYU for hosting us.
Everybody attending must RSVP through the registration form at nyhackr.org. There is a charge for in-person and virtual tickets are free. Space is extremely limited and in-person registration closes at 3 PM the day of the talk.
About the Talk:You’ve almost certainly been lied to after Googling how big the world’s cities are. How can it be that Melbourne in Australia has 5 million residents, whereas New York City only has 8? This talk will give you all the skills you need to be an expert in population density. After this talk you’ll understand the different densities of our global cities, both using www.citydensity.com and in R.
About Jonathan:Jonathan Nolan is the co-founder of Feather - a website that helps social businesses sell tickets and build real life communities. He originally trained as a physician before entering health policy, leading the Modelling and Analytics unit for Victoria, Australia’s Department of Health.
The venue doors open at 6:30 PM America/New_York where we will continue enjoying pizza together (we encourage the virtual audience to have pizza as well). The talk, and livestream, begins at 7:00 PM America/New_York.
