A story about how I am collecting, sharing and analyzing data to fight Parkinson's Disease (PD) and optimize my life. It was prepared for the Quantified Self "Show and Tell" on Jan. 16th, 2014 at Autodesk Gallery in San Francisco. Bottom line: I may have Parkinson's, but it doesn't have me! Note: Most photos link to related source materials. Feel free to download, reuse, and comment. (CC Attribution License) I welcome suggestions for the presentation and QS routines! Hopefully the first of many as I track my progress against the progress of PD... The video of my presentation can be found here: http://quantifiedself.com/2014/02/kevin-krejci-tracking-parkinsons/
