Dissertation Proposal - Data Visualisation
31 likes2,021 views
The document examines the visualization of language through graphic visual mapping and its role in structuring complex information. It discusses various tools and techniques for information visualization, such as mind maps and cognitive maps, while exploring the interdisciplinary approach involving communication, education, and psychology. The text raises questions about the importance of self-identity in visual communication and the effectiveness of different graphic mapping techniques in presenting knowledge clearly.

- 27. Picasso states, ‘ When I paint, my object is to show what I have found and not what I am looking for.’ (Frayling, 1993/4, p.2). Frayling in Research in Art & Design states, ‘ how can I tell what I am till I see what I make and do?’ (Frayling, C, 1993/4, p.5).
- 28. FINAL THOGUHTS These visualisations I have made are what I have found about who I am. So for communication of knowledge should self be made visible explicitly in the visualisations? If so which voice (self), and to what degree? Or should the findings be presented/visualised without these elements of self to aid in clearer communication? Also what is the best visual graphic mapping technique at capturing attention and clearly presenting knowledge/information of a complex subject in easy to interpret visual layout?
