Demo of a proposed spectator app for the Chicago Marathon.
The App celebrates the diversity of the many international runners participating (while highlighting local Chicago runners) as well as any cause they are running for, and the money they have raised for it.

Our class is built around the premise that cities and corporations are rushing towards a future where data on almost every aspect of life is gathered, tracked and analyzed.
IBM, GE, Apple and Facebook already have our daily lives on file. Cities like Chicago, New York and San Francisco are also gathering data and slowly making it accessible to everyone.
But in both cases, there is feverish gathering of data but few tangible examples of what we should do with it once we have it.
What patterns emerge from our behavioral data?
What new tools, services and environments are shaped by these patterns?
For this presentation, we are tackling a common problem that occurs frequently in Chicago: a traffic incident at an intersection.
