a different technological future. one that people are not the product. of. the. morning filming a film or if you get into all of them how will you know what you're washed up over gaza no. one more but will want to look out of the public would want to. get that but. i feel like they know nothing of me but i want to hear from the folks who come on. the. other. side.

i thought i know there was that kind of. i didn't want that on a beer. visit that link god went to. this stocking mom over there can always and over there what it's going to go so no valid my stand so i struggle with. you as you stay with us call this what audition

because criticize it if you're going to. run the channel but i thought that it's going to hit the scottish but i was the thought something was on it and went on and on with. both adama on and of them they had bought. all. the animals you know for. a sense of oh it's you is this all about it before you joined your pointless to. cause a blog days on seven mice when i said i must be sure i should be g.g. to go to some of the complex where so much to. get a check i got out of this business and yet i think the. little.

bit. east to sing sing them to grease me up on amazon mission question is the station she will join danger would you join because egypt painted this kind i'm going to use. it or not you want to look at the man. john the other confused mr shared with us where he had keef weird little food ossetia. that. was. going to sell point and i want to help him buy the odd to fish by visual.

well look it's thank. you it's a pleasure. to do some of the lift into. the store. was on a wiki you do message for. seal simply make else imprimis foskett stay up with this you'll. still be moving as a result. of watching the games live i said to my. father elam wish to allege what you let me through what got us to. name don't wash which is a few of the camilla's yellow people because it was a boy. and you can reach the skittish they were there because dang the so moment.

i was up to him from my promise. to where. i am harlow home i'm a software developer and digital security trainer and i'm the lead architect of a library called informant camp which sits in the center of the camera free app. i mean i think you wrote this code to pull in anything that might exist pretty much

pretty much because whatever you. why not because why not a couple of years ago i was in a class that nathan taught and for a project i had decided that i wanted to sink a video and images with of their data points that were exposed in order to you know get a kind of who what when where why and possibly even how of a particular event that you see visually. around the world. there are a number of satellites. that are constantly orbiting our globe and they usually. beam down position info to devices such as our cell phones that have a pretty good accuracy and also have the unintended effect of giving us

a timestamp as well which we used rather than your phone's clock and order to tell what time it was if you're standing anywhere on earth and can receive a g.p.s. signal your device is then able to triangulate where you are in relation to it and several of the sources that you also use to triangulate your position can also be used by camera to further cooperate where you are such as your cell phone tower or even nearby why fight networks. right now there's more photos more videos than ever being put in from social media into court they called open source right in the legal process where they go out and source things off the open web and then use that as evidence for instance but the process of verifying who and what and when it's really this manual labor we have to go back and kind of dig through all of this to kind of piece it together and what we're trying to do is just. create that from the start so creating a kind of d.n.a.

inside the visual media itself such that it's there from the beginning. or. what's interesting about open source development especially with android software is that just about everything is accessible using an a.p.i. an a.p.i. being an application programming interface is kind of like a door that allows you to access certain. certain aspects of the phone and this case especially with camera v. it was the interface to the hardware screens. right this is the shot. we used to build a fix things ourselves and understand how they work and now they're you know almost hermetically sealed behind you know many tiny screws all of which we have to find a special screwdriver for. if you open it up you actually see that little bit really is simply a computer inside of this case. this is the camera is quite powerful and it's got

a. interface on the back for the motherboard this is where all the data flows and inside here we have the lens and the sensors that focus and capture the light and turn it into you have it right and this is where it then flows into the motherboard through the bus which is then captured into the general purpose c.p.u. that powers the android operating system. so usually when someone talks about taking a picture what they mean is using a photographic sensor to capture the visible light emanating from a subject a person or a place when we talk about taking a picture we're actually talking about capturing a much broader spectrum of energy like infrared spectrum and radio waves and speed in gravity and other atmosphere is energy. coming in that you don't perceive with

your eyes fortunately for us smartphone devices have additional sensor components that can gather things. for me talk about taking a picture it's about gathering the full spectrum of the visible and the invisible interim working through. this is the tricky part to this but maybe i can get a job here fixing cell phone yari have a job thanks. toughens different kind of job. she's android. but now i've been thinking about committing myself to i phone again because the go go go cross compiling on the i phone no i would never use and i found out that. they are pretty nice. but i am not really

a fan of. the particular barrier to entry that they place for people who want to get started developing yeah i think on a theoretical level i you know kind of push back against apple because of that i also think about it as star trek or star wars a little bit and there it is star wars i thought it starts. yakking when you think the opposite well i guess if i were to make any. any argument although i definitely do get what you mean i think android lends itself more to federation. than the iowa system does and also quite frankly what it boils down to is i like star trek.

so you guys have the before. the camera view up is already sold although it should be on your home screen so you know for a corner. selects. once promoters activate it it's all the work it sort of works like a little black box recorder or some some other data right like do you guys know what method it is so it's information about the video and the generic to finish unformatted the race datable data here in the united states the word met a day that has been all over the news. because of the secret program of the and it's a collecting method data for phone calls. ensure that the data can be used to corroborate what the new image shows or want to witness. tell tells about

what's happening in the image and it can be used to reveal additional contextual information about poulticing so it works in the background and now you can open your favorite camera app or just the camera that's the default camera on the phone and you can start shooting just the usual way you do this you don't have to do anything different at this point it just it works in the background to records your information and automatically imports all this into a camera view we can go outside and come back. to we are going to do this exercise we're going to use it to film we're going to use it and we're going to document with. you we have a number of people we have four members that she will. we have witness on the front i can't miss them we have a pretty unique style. you know and that's what's going to get the cinemas is the

funniest movie i mean it's about i so go come up with that one act my good our film about the. songs and you know i mean you know i don't spit in the beginning to think it's going to be watching this show feel the character cast councell guitars i want to see the tone in both come into play with with me do the lead up to seven point definition of there's no one no no no. no. don't part of it either but that one. as it sounds like if there were any. licks particular experiences that they've had or situations where the where the functionalities of the immediately thought could be used but it's. sponsors it will be this who calls for with you if you must sing i should. say what's going on here johnny oh oh i think there are some pretty self funded up until that happened now and it was a phenomenal domi on his you know up with you know they just say ok but ask you

guys i never met him but i have watched. but that's like it's often little that's i think. really. the name of your project kind of in from the south a bigger brother because the vision was the sum total of power of our individual smartphone cameras connected was greater than the big brothers here through surveillance technology through cameras on the street closed circuit surveillance cameras so in the past you know we live when we think about the notion of surveillance we think about peace you know really tall poles with big ominous time around see you know staring down at us from every street corner and i think it's really exciting when we invert that and we think about you know soon valences circus from the french top down and sue inverts that bottom up right so the suv

aliant is really how we watch back and you know ultimately we have more cameras than they do because we're the people. standing second the sun set up by and by the group coming in i'll buy off. the world for the operator i think so but it is one that i meant you're going to put it on the domain with about a couple have fights on a complex item oh i don't have a high valued as i can assume me to buy my zinc. so stressed only going to put this out you've got the brazilian cop watch now that we've got a lot of people out there how do you feel i mean this is a humbling you know i just feel like part of a group to do that you know it's going to raise a man like film the police. is

a crazy you know for you. know. we got we got forty eight gig. we loaded. seventy three so what would be where i would definitely be at because look how ready to do so that right there is telling me that there's a lot of complaints given by civilians about police misconduct in that precinct and some might say so my the things i. say again i've made to the my pm me aren't here politically so we used the c.c. . we used a y p d map and we also used the n. so that we gather from people in the street when you thought i was a child. i did that i saw. daisy sell a lot of bra. i'm a how the show i'm a shill i'm a shop bell lead this is something the spreading globally you know people naturally instinctively know that pulling out

a cell phone camera you're going to record and this is something that you can now do social media and let the world see that's you know a shift in who controls what. but if you. keep he just going to see my i had to digest we're going to play some edge of access for him which in talking just gets them able so then is. that from a technological police formation we do to. get them out of some of the not you put out the mob i just don't believe. the staff isn't the message they mean by whom we

.

the but. it looks pretty good unless you want to salute american our. own that really was real for us today you. see the fun with us. yes there's a special want to take a look at the many data here. but actually let's see previous himself. yeah so this one house and cell tower. data and then a book what was interesting and i'm not necessarily sure we have it. but mostly it's a wife by network haha and why that's interesting obviously is because . it puts you like in

a specific place at this particular time. and also like the white lie level that that you have there. gives a little bit of sense of your like you know proximity and like even kind of directionality how you're facing in in regards to that life i see you know the just the very fact of having a trajectory for a video from start to finish with direction or you know hold on is i mean first and foremost from that we didn't treat perspective what you trust but from the storytelling perspective we can really think about how to leverage that right to the point of i think this entire project is that we want to be able to believe what we see and we want to be able to establish trust with the people who are showing us things that we see so it's not just instagram for activists this is

serious business. the. uphill from i see they're going to inject them into the commercial from those going from either the guards. most companies they can always one thing sam or me composed of it on themselves and going. good evening my name is even holding time. as i me executive director of with this there's one group who is amazing they are just smartest they are the most effective and they are to previous so mind warner is to work with. vote. who had to go

and how do ya go. and we talk about the stock you. see. your little sewing. machine. lost her job and.

just. want to go. i'm going to go like everywhere connectivity this paramount and yet more infrastructure in the pan than some foreign corporation means to many remain offline now a politician and tech activists are building a homegrown solution good night live units and secure the nation's technological sovereignty the. rebel geeks the citizens network at this time on earth does you know. one of the really special things about working for al-jazeera is that even as a camera woman i get to have so much empathy and contribution to

a story i feel we cover this region better than anyone else would be what it is you know is that it tendency to believe but the good because you have a lot of people that are divided on political issues we are we the people we live to tell the real stories are just mended is to deliver in-depth generalism we don't feel inferior to the audience across the globe. to. the frustration. the scene for us where on line what is american sign in yemen that peace is always

possible but it never happens not because the situation is complicated but because no one cares or if you join us on sat there are people. between buying medication eating this is a dialogue i want to get in one more comment because this is someone who is an activist and has posted a story join the global conversation at this time on al-jazeera. named are the top stories on al-jazeera the u.s. president says he will meet with kim jong un by a maze signaling a potential breakthrough in relations between washington and north korea the south korean delegation meeting with donald trump at the white house delivered pyongyang's invitation to the president the north korean leaders also pledged to suspend nuclear.
