Imaging [Urban] Data Visualisation

 
An expert meeting organized by Datafied Society and [urban interfaces], in collaboration with SETUP MediaLab and MCW Expertise Center
The goal of this meeting is to facilitate a dialogue between academics and practitioners about the possibilities for innovative, critical and experimental forms of “bringing  back” data to (urban) publics. Or, in other words, we will discuss how creative and critical data visualizations allow urban publics to become aware of, and engage with, issues of public, shared concern, and to subsequently act upon them. This is an urgent topic as our society is becoming increasingly datafied and our urban spaces are increasingly infused with (smart) media technologies. The event brings together a diverse group of practitioners and researchers who, in various ways, work with data visualization. Invited artists and researchers will present their work on datavisualization and focus on intersections of artistic and/or other ambitions.

Participants include: Tanne van Bree, Yuri Engelhardt, Klaas Kuitenbrouwer, Eef Masson, Geert Mul, Peter Pelzer, Richard Vijgen, and Linda Vlassenrood.
