About

I’m Matt Hampel, a digital developer and civic information hacker. I currently work at the Ginsberg Center for Community Service and Learning at the University of Michigan, where I am building digital infrastructure.

On the Internet:

Some of the projects I’ve worked on:

  • ArborWiki, a wiki for Ann Arbor
  • DetroitWiki, a small wiki & place to take notes about the City of Detroit (and a potential LocalWiki install)
  • A2docs, a place to store those documents about Ann Arbor tat you’ve FOIA’ed.
  • A report on CTN, Ann Arbor’s Community Access TV channel
  • A top-secret data collection app for the News Apps team at the Chicago Tribune
  • Case studies on iReport and the Chi-Town Daily News for the Media Re:public report from the Berkman Center for Internet and Society
