The People’s democratic festival (‘Folkemødet‘) takes place in June each Year in small town Allinge on Bornholm.

A total of 100.000 participates over three days.  Folkemødet is a very open platform for meeting both policy makers and the public on issues as for example ‘Using BigData in Health Policy making’.

As part of its public outreach activities EVOTION joined the FOlkemøde in June 2019 and arranged a series of debates about Big Data and Health and sparked discussion by use of EVOTION as a very concrete instrument.

We packed the EVOTION Hearing Aids and platform data collection tools and invited festival participants to help us map the ‘Sound of Folkemødet’.

Over two days we ‘recruited’ participants to help collecting data about the ‘Sound of the Festival’ in ways which are easily comprehensible.
