Violence and Crisis

The project was made in Ambient Intelligence classes at University of Coimbra. Starting with NYTimes API, chosen by me Cátia and Claúdia, our goal was to tell a story with the gathered data. To show a narrative in which the relation between violence and crisis is brought to evidence in the light of nowadays news. As the head of the project I must say that was not easy to finish it within the proposed time schedule. Although we were able to present a beta version of what was the plan.
