Manchester’s Digital Twin

Monday 27th October 2025, 9.20am (day 5,177)

Data Visualisation lab, 27/10/25

Wherever it actually resides depends on the university’s deployment of ‘cloud storage solutions’, I guess, but the interface that allows oversight of this ‘digital twin’ of Manchester resides in the Business School. Want to keep an eye on the city’s start-ups? energy use? property prices? infection rates? It’s all here. There’s something mildly sinister and undeniably impressive about it all, both at the same time.

Digital Barrier Reef, QUT

Friday 1st February 2013, 1.10pm (day 526)

Digital Barrier Reef, 1/2/13

 

This massive, interactive display – 30 feet (9m) high at least – resides in the foyer of the brand new Science and Technology block at Queensland University of Technology (QUT). OK, it has nothing to do with business process analysis, or whatever – so is essentially trivial – but it gets a lot more interest, from all sorts of people.
