We see more cartographic products in our digital world than ever before. But what role does cartography play in the modern production of cartographic products? In this position paper, we will argue that the democratization and diffusion of cartographic production has also led to the presumed “fading relevance” of cartography. As an argument against this notion, we highlight starting points for the field of cartography to improve modern cartographic production through its inherent cartographic knowledge.
Our Symbiotic Life
(2019)
We will explore four plausible futures and experiment on a speculative approach to investigate "wicked problems" [14]. Grounded in the field of design fiction, this work combines insights from the climate impact research community, technology meta trends, and plant science, all of which work as a basis for the exploration of relationships between humans, plants, and technology. Based on scenarios from the climate impact research community, we prototyped four plausible worlds and visualized exemplary scenes in the daily life of the plausible citizens. Sketching and low-fidelity prototyping supported the process of gaining knowledge and iterating on storytelling.
Any-Cubes
(2019)
Here we present Any-Cubes, a prototype toy with which children can intuitively and playfully explore and understand machine learning as well as Internet of Things technology. Our prototype is a combination of deep learning-based image classification [12] and machine-to-machine (m2m) communication via MQTT. The system consists of two physical and tangible wooden cubes. Cube 1 ("sensor cube") is inspired by Google's teachable machine [14,15]. The sensor cube can be trained on any object or scenery. The machine learning functionality is directly implemented on the microcontroller (Raspberry Pi) by a Google Edge TPU Stick. Via MQTT protocol, the microcontroller sends its current status to Cube 2, the actuator cube. The actuator cube provides three switches (relays controlled by an Arduino board) to which peripheral devices can be connected. This allows simple if-then functions to be executed in real time, regardless of location. We envision our system as an intuitive didactic tool for schools and maker spaces.
