Information visualisation :The art of presenting visualised data Workshop with Professor Ian Gwilt (Sheffield)

Description

Based on a partnership initiated at the Bristol AHRC conference and supported by the AHRC Digital transformation in the Humanities framework and by the ICRH at QUB, this workshop gave students an introduction to the practice and theory of visual communication and design. It highlighted the possibilities of computer-based graphical user interface and how to apply them. Using examples from current AHRC supported projects it served to enable students to take advantage of resources and technologies of information materialisation and visualisation. It facilitated the creation of augmented artefacts and lead into hybrid creative practices such as design for museum interaction, interactive installations and augmented reality for mobile devices. One of the aims was to encourage students to incorporate visual communication design practices into their research and highlight how this can foster trans-disciplinary research
