Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...ABHILASH DUTTA
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

2. Origin Of Chess
The history of chess spans some 1500 years.
The earliest predecessors of the game originated in
India,before the 6th century AD. From India, the game
spread to Persia.
When the Arabs conquered Persia, chess was taken up
by the Muslim world and subsequently spread to
Southern Europe.
In Europe, chess evolved into roughly its current form in the
15th century
Free PowerPoint Backgrounds
In the second half of the 19th century, modern chess
tournament play began, and the first world Chess
Championship was held in 1886.

5. Chess Coins & Concepts
Chess board contians 64 squares of 8 rows and 8
columns.
Horizontal rows are called as Ranks in chess.
Vertical columns are called as Files.
Chess pieces, or chessmen, are the pieces deployed
on a chessboard to play the game of chess.
The pieces vary in capabilities, giving them different
values in the game.

7. The King
In chess, the king (♔, ♚) is
the most important piece. The
object of the game is to trap the
opponent's king so that its escape
is not possible (checkmate). If a
player's king is threatened with
capture, it is said to be in check,
and the player must remove the
threat of capture on the next
move. If this cannot be done, the
king is said to be in checkmate.
Although the king is the most
Free PowerPoint Backgrounds important piece, it is usually the
weakest piece in the game until a
later phase, the endgame.
http://www.bellogamesnewyork.com
8. Queen
The queen (♕,♛) is the most powerful piece in
the game of chess, able to move any number of
squares vertically, horizontally, or diagonally.
Each player starts the game with one queen,
placed in the middle of the first rank next to the
king. With the chessboard oriented correctly, the
white queen starts on a white square and the
black queen on a black square.

9. Rook
The rook participates with the king, in a
special move called castling. In
general, rooks are stronger than
bishops or knights (which are called
minor pieces) and are considered
greater in value than either of those
pieces by nearly two pawns but less
valuable than two minor pieces. Two
rooks are generally considered to be
worth slightly more than a queen.
Winning a rook for a bishop or knight is
referred to as winning the exchange.
Free PowerPoint Backgrounds Rooks and queens are called heavy
pieces or major pieces, as opposed to
bishops and knights, the minor pieces.
http://www.bellogamesnewyork.com
10. Bishop
The bishop has no restrictions in distance
for each move, but is limited to diagonal
movement. Bishops, like all other pieces
except the knight, cannot jump over other
pieces. A bishop captures by occupying the
square on which an enemy piece sits. The
bishops may be differentiated according to
which wing they begin on,the king's bishop
and queen's bishop. As a consequence of
Free PowerPoint Backgrounds
its diagonal movement, each bishop always
remains on either the white or black
squares, and so it is also common to refer to
them as http://www.bellogamesnewyork.com
light squared or dark squared
11. knight
The knight move is unusual among chess
pieces. When it moves, it can move two
squares horizontally and one square
vertically, or two squares vertically and one
square horizontally. The complete move
therefore looks like the letter 'L'. Unlike all
other standard chess pieces, the knight can
'jump over' all other pieces to its destination
square. It captures an enemy piece by
moving into its square. The knight's ability
to 'jump over' other pieces means it tends
to be at its most powerful in closed
positions, in contrast to that of a bishop.
The move is one of the longest-surviving
Free PowerPoint Backgroundsmoves in chess, having remained
unchanged since before the seventh
century.
http://www.bellogamesnewyork.com
12. pawn
The pawn (♙♟) is the most numerous and
weakest piece in the game of chess,
historically representing infantry, or more
particularly armed peasants or pikemen.
Each player begins the game with eight
pawns, one on each square of the rank
immediately in front of the other pieces.
Unlike the other pieces, pawns may not
move backwards. Normally a pawn moves
by advancing a single square, but the first
time a pawn is moved, it has the option of
advancing two squares. Pawns may not
use the initial two-square advance to jump
over an occupied square, or to capture.
Free PowerPoint BackgroundsAny piece directly in front of a pawn, friend
or foe, blocks its advance.
http://www.bellogamesnewyork.com
13. Game Clock
A game clock consists of two adjacent clocks and
buttons to stop one clock while starting the other,
such that the two component clocks never run
simultaneously. Game clocks are used in two-
player games where the players move in turn.
The purpose is to keep track of the total time
each player takes for his or her own moves, and
ensure that neither player overly delays the
game. Game clocks were first used extensively in
tournament chess, and are often called chess
clocks. The first time that game clocks were used
in a chess tournament was in the London 1883
tournament.
