[:en] Convert Safecast bGeigie CPM Readings To A Midi File in Less Than 10 Minutes! For the past couple of years, I’ve been inspired by numerous artists that have utilized Safecast radiation data and the bGeigie nano device to imagine it in ways that go outside the norms of scientific data represented in bar graphs…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvIhzKlDLgo This video was presented at the Institute for Strategic Leadership‘s “Carry On Fukushima” program in Tokyo on 7/21/11. It includes voices from food producers in the area around the still-leaking Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant: Ohashi may need to look outside Fukushima now for organic suppliers for his bread. He says we need to learn to…
After three weeks monitoring every day and reporting nearly every day, we have to conclude that measuring radiation in Hikone, although only 60km from Tsuruga (where there are 5 nuclear power-plants), is more like taking temperature of a not-sick child. Let’s hope it will stay this way. About two weeks ago, we were standing ready…
