This is cross-posted on the Tech-Psych blog.I recently attended the Visualization in the World Symposium, hosted by the Charlotte Viz Center at UNC-Charlotte. I was impressed by the variety of disciplines represented at the symposium- the speakers came from fields such as architecture, psychology, and geography. The audience was also diverse.
The slides from the presentations will be available soon, so check back to follow the links, or visit the Charlotte Visualization Center's website.
If you are interested in visual thinking, visual literacy, visual communication, and visualization in education, take the time to explore the links once they are posted!
FYI: There is a growing group of people who'd like to get a "World Visualization Day" off the ground. Earth Day is celebrated in our schools, why not a visualization day?! Dr. Kosara, the author of the Eager Eyes blog, is a strong supporter of this movement.
At the moment, various colleges and organizations offer a "visualization day" from time-to-time. If you live in the New York area, you might be interested in attending Visualization Day at City College of New York.
