Paolo Ciuccarelli, directeur scientifique Density Design Research Lab, Politecnico di Milano

Il interviendra, en anglais, sur le thème "Macroscopes. Designing visual tools to help people understand and make sense of complex phenomena".

28/11/2011 18h30 - 20h
5ème Salle Charlotte Perriand

Le travail de Paolo Ciuccarelli est basé sur la représentation visuelle des phénomènes complexes urbains, sociaux et organisationnels.

Although producing, collecting, and sharing information has become much easier, robust methods and effective visual tools are still needed to observe and explore the nature of complex issues.

Our research aim is to exploit the potential of information visualization and information design and provide innovative and engaging visual artifacts to enable researchers and scholars to build solid arguments. By rearranging numeric data, reinterpreting qualitative information, locating information geographically, and building visual taxonomies, we can develop a diagrammatic visualization—a sort of graphic shortcut—to describe and unveil the hidden connections of complex systems. Our visualizations are open, inclusive, and preserve multiple interpretations of complex phenomena.
DensityDesign is committed to collaborating with other researchers and organizations devoted to academic independence and rigor, open enquiry, and risk taking to enhance our understanding of the world.
