Tiziana Alocci
"The workshop aims to produce data-driven outputs by visualising data linked to sounds. Participants will use data from audio files as creative material to convey new meanings and arise emotions from stories and current phenomenons. The participants will explore different mediums, new techniques, and the foundations of information design and its history. "

Nicholas Masterton
"We will work with footage of an important place or object. This can be brought by the participants of the workshop or taken from a small archive. We will use this footage to create 3 dimensional outputs and we will then situate these geospatially. We will use the footage to generate a 3D model in a process known as photogrammetry. Using GIS data, we can import a model of the landscape, architecture, and infrastructure surrounding the object or place. Finally, we can upload our 3D models to the geospatial web platform 'Cesium'. The resulting slidehow can be presented in form of a short video at end of the workshop."
