What Should Be On A Digital Map Of NYC?
In NYC's recent municipal elections, voters weighed in on 6 ballot measures. The measure with the most support at the ballot box tasks a city agency with creating and maintaining a singular digital map of NYC. What might be useful to include on such a map? Public bathrooms? Flood-prone intersections? Third spaces? Listeners call in to share their suggestions. Plus, Noel Hidalgo, founder of the civic software non-profit BetaNYC, and Steven Romalewski, founding director of CUNY Mapping Service at Center for Urban Research, share their insights on the value of interactive urban maps, open civic data and more about urban cartography for the digital age.

Pianist Sean Mason Performs Live
Sean Mason is a North Carolina-based composer and pianist who, after beginning his career in New York, decided to return home to discover a new creative path. So it's fitting that his new album is called A Breath of Fresh Air. The album is also accompanied by a short documentary film, photo essay, and video series. Mason discusses the inspiration behind the new album, and performs live ahead of his concert at Miller Theatre at Columbia University on November 15 at 7:30pm.
ALL OF IT is a show about culture and its consumers.
ALL OF IT is a show about culture and context.
ALL OF IT is a show about culture and the culture.
Our aim is to engage the thinkers, doers, makers, and creators, about the what and why of their work. People make the culture and we hope, need, and want the WNYC community to be a part of our show. As we build a community around ALL OF IT, we know that every guest and listener has an opinion. We won’t always agree, but our varied perspectives and diversity of experience is what makes New York City great.
ALL OF IT will be both companion for and curator of the myriad culture this city has to offer. In the words of Cristina De Rossi, anthropologist at Barnet and Southgate College, London:
"Culture encompasses religion, food, what we wear, how we wear it, our language, marriage, music, what we believe is right or wrong, how we sit at the table, how we greet visitors, how we behave with loved ones, and a million other things."
...In other words, ALL OF IT.
