1. A project for Nasa Space Apps 2015, in NYC. Team Command-Kittens : Jesus Aguilar @giventocode, Jason Walters @jasonrwalters, Ben Bojko @benjaminbojko and Stacey Mulcahy @bitchwhocodes. Transcript =============== Overview ------------- Nasa has a wealth of recordings of many major missions, shuttle launches, and of space in general, documenting space exploration to allow everyone to become passive participants, explorers searching for new discoveries and possibilities beyond what the eye can see. These recordings often capture moments of deep historical significance. This project aims to take that journey one step beyond just listening to these moments in time. By creating transcripts dynamically generated through indexing the audio files, natural language processing can determine frequency, popular phrases 1
2. and even entities. These results can help define query terms, along with other meta data from the file such as date, to help contextualize this moment in time for the user: images from Flickr and news paper articles from the New York Times for example. Once this aggregated data source is created from the audio file transcript, a Kinect enabled installation utilizes it to present an abstract view of this information for the user, along with the audio, providing a more immersive way to experience this content.
