If open data is your thing and you have a creative edge, then the Machinery of Data (MOD) competition is for you.

MOD is a data driven competition that merges open data with hardware and art.  Some examples include: A 3D printed representation of open data, jewellery, art or music based on data or a clock that uses Adelaide Metro data to show bus arrival times.

Anything goes just use Data.SA open data to inspire or interact with your creation.

This year we are partnering with the Adelaide Maker Faire to host a Data.SA and Machinery of Data Exhibition.  The event will be held on Sunday 1 November, 10am – 5pm, 1284 South Road, Clovelly Park (the old Mitsubishi site).

$1000 Prize up for grabs for best in show!

The competition commences as soon as you get an idea and entry is free!  Simply submit your expression of interest  entry by 1 October 2015 on EventBrite which details your creation.

Your entry does not need to be completed until the 30th October 2015.
