DataViz Workshop Miguel Cardoso /Pedro Almeida, 12 - 15 Oct. 2011, Lisbon, Portugal About the workshop An introductory workshop to the theories, tools, and strategies for data visualization: a transversal discipline with great communication potential that enables the understanding of large abstract sets of data flooding us every day.

An exercise will be proposed, starting from a data set, the participants will be invited to explore its informational significance by collecting, analyzing, selecting and filtering the data and to represent its content developing models that can provide a significant interaction with the user. For such, we’ll go through various disciplines (design, mathematics, computation, sciences) and theories (graphs, complexity, emergence) with the intent to create a significant experience of information.
