There's a culture data hack weekend in Liverpool on 3rd/4th March.

I think it would be great if more geeks from DoES could sign up :)

http://hackforculture.eventbrite.com/

LJMU have got Bluecoat, Everyman Playhouse, FACT, Liverpool
Philharmonic, Tate Liverpool, Liverpool Biennial and Unity Theatre to
be involved.

The idea is to show them how they could do more things with cultural
data - both public data sets, and their own internal data.

Anyone with ideas of datasets that can be scraped in advance would be
cool too :)

Some possible themes are:
* Travel
* Feedback on events (local forums, social media)
* Footfall analysis
* Arts funding

Please suggest more.

Francis
