Show Notes

This week we introduce Nick Guy, Data Detective. A knock at the door. A new client. And a mystery that will take us through the next several episodes. Maybe Nick wishes he had grabbed dinner earlier. Or maybe not. Joining John and Mark is Irene Dirks, one of the passers-by that sat down and actually talked with us at DGIQ. She has some very creative and engaging ideas for using Lego sets to get across information management concepts. Sounds like a lot of fun. Next time we find ourselves in Utrecht we'll have to drop in on one of her workshops.

Chapters:

00:00 – Open & Introduction; 04:10 – Monologue; 06:54 – Irene Dirks; 17:35 – Dispatches from Rock Bottom; 19:43 – Audio Data Rorschach Test; 21:47 – Recap & Close
