Quantified Self is a collaboration of users and tool makers who share an interest in self knowledge through self-tracking. We exchange information about our personal projects, the tools we use, tips we've gleaned, lessons we've learned. We blog, meet face to face, and collaborate online.
You are welcome to join us!

From how to self-diagnose to how to self-experiment with data and statistics, Quantified Selfers might be those curiously engaging in a host of intelligence-gathering in the form of:

  • life logging,
  • sleep tracking,
  • personal genomics, personal genetics and genome sequencing
  • medical self-diagnostics and keeping track of one's own medical data 
  • location tracking,
  • biometrics,
  • psychological self-assessments, 
  • caffeine experiments,
  • behaviour tracking,
  • productivity tweakery

..and all manner of curiosities that you may not think produce data to analyse, like wisdom

 

Each have something in common, to quote co-founder of Quantified Self, Gary Wolf - they add a  computational dimension to ordinary existence. What egghead could resist the lure?

Come join us for regular show & tell sessions in Cape Town. Present your own data, experiments, insights or come marvel and learn with us.

    "Hi, I'm a quant/programmer/applied mathematician that's very interested in the Quantified Self movement. I'm looking into buying a Basis or Fitbit and would like to meet up with others in CT. How active is this group and how often do you meet?"
