Philips Seminar: From data to meaning for people

This morning I visited the Philips seminar From data to meaning for people.
Talks on how machine to machine data can be important for people. How we can create meaning and value for consumers. Two highlights for me were: A very interesting talk on Quantified Self or self tracking by Maarten den Braber, Quantified self.  And a fantastic example of visualizing data in combination with documentary making by Joris Maltha and Daniel Gross, Catalogtree.
For everyone who missed it (two videos!):
