Visualizing Complexity: Bridging Divides
Data and affect -
"Data visualization is never neutral; every choice—fonts, colors, scale—carries emotional and political implications."
Introducing pioneers like W.E.B. Du Bois, who used data visualization to highlight racial inequalities, and Florence Nightingale, known for her use of statistical diagrams to influence public health policy, will provide an inspiring historical context to the workshop. Pairing this with art-based methods to address complex themes, such as intersectionality, offers a creative and participatory way to engage with social issues.
Message for the Workshop:
- Data visualization is a tool for storytelling.
- Decisions in design can amplify or diminish narratives, especially for marginalized groups.
- Highlight the importance of making intentional, inclusive design choices.
