Skyfie

October 18, 2018 Look Up Together.

Ever wonder what people in far off places are seeing at the same time you’re looking up at the sky? The Skyfie app is made exactly for that. Astronaut, physician, engineer and educator Dr Mae Jemison believes the impact of looking up at the sky can be as profound as seeing the Earth from space orbit. Especially when its a shared worldwide experience!

Capture, create, express, share and explore what you (and countless individuals worldwide) see and feel when looking at the sky. Intuitive, simple and powerful, the Skyfie app lets you easily, on a single page, generate your message to the world as a photo, video, audio recoding or text and then upload it to an interactive globe of the Earth.

And you can seamlessly, explore what everyone submitted across our planet on the Sky Tapestry.

The Skyfies from around the world are woven together to build a Sky Tapestry of humanity’s ideas, hopes, concerns, plans, needs, resources, connecting you to your community and individuals around the world. Skyfies are all synchronized to GMT or Zulu time and displayed at their upload location on this Sky Tapestry, and a digital globe, for viewing in the app.

Rotate the globe, zoom in, zoom out, explore and find yourself.

Built for the Look Up movement, the app is live now and the Sky Tapestry will be filled with the world’s commentary October 18. And be available for viewing. But the Tapestry needs your contributions for a real undrstanding of Earth.

The Skyfie App and Sky Tapestry community will host special events that grow our global connectedness. And you can contribute in the best way you see fit—text, video of dancing, art, photos, music, audio—and show what you want the world to know.

Features:

Take photos, film video, record audio and write text and upload all from single page.

Put yourself in the sky with unique ‘photo in photo’ function without leaving camera function or retrieving a photo from a gallery —and place yourself anywhere on picture.

Sky Tapestry is a fully interactive digital globe that shows Skyfies, content, from individuals worldwide in near real-time. The Sky Tapestry renders the Skyfies on a satellite topographical map that can be zoomed to neighborhood resolution. But don’t worry, your identity and specific location are not revealed.
