Execution:
The design reflects the App concept through the CUBE.From the logo to the presentation of the news, where each one of its six sides shows one of the opposing focuses. You can view them interactively and unfold them on a board where you can see their confrontation, or on a special map with the different degrees of differentiation between them.Although, the news don´t have to be black or white, blue or red. We have decided to only use a scale of greys. In order not to produce an ideology. The user will reach their own conclusions.---Yournalist uses the latest advances in DEEP LEARNING. IT IS THE FIRST NEWS APP THAT CAPTURES SOUND that then using IBM WATSON, BY MEANS OF SENTIMENT ALGORITHMS APPLIED TO NATURAL LANGUAGE, processes it and identifies concepts, entities, people, and target sentiment, WHICH IT CONVERTS INTO KEYWORDS with percentages of relevance that are used TO LOOK FOR OTHER SIMILAR SOURCES that contain them. ONCE IDENTIFIED, IT MAKES AN INNOVATIVE SECOND READING OF DATA BY WATSON: it uses the tool for the opposite reason for which it was designed and, instead of similarities, TO FIND DIFFERENCES.
Outcome:
Reviewed positively in the main technology and general media outlets (4 stars in the magazine iCreate).The plus service is used today by more than 40 editorial teams around the world.EITB became the first independent and objective media outlet in spontaneous mention in the regions where it operates.83% of users use it as their prime source of information on their mobile, sent to more than 50,000 subscribers outside the Basque Country.Coverage in the main general media outlets.Second stage of funding to launch it globally.
Synopsis:
Despite us seemingly having more access to information than ever before, it's getting harder to hear all the different sides of the story.Nowadays, the media has to be fast and this makes it very hard to check the news They are also part of big business groups with their own interest in mind. And we're getting our news from search engines and social networks, with algorithms created to display what we supposedly want to hear.
