The call for Web Residencies »Tools for Citation« from Akademie Schloss Solitude looks amazing:
"The residency encourages artists to delve into associative trails, transdisciplinary thinking, and collaborative processes in and between analogue and digital networks and worlds to explore the practices of citation."

added two new demo GIFs to our growing portfolio page on Visualizing Cultural Collections:

these latest additions are a testament to our recent interest in entangling exploration with narration – with a particular focus on historic fashion.
Dieses Wochenende findet am Fachbereich #Design der #FHPotsdam die WERKSCHAU statt. Es lohnt sich vorbeizu-SCHAU-en. Seit gestern wird aufgebaut und das Haus D brummt nur so vor kreativer Energie!
Es werden auch Arbeiten aus dem Master #UrbaneZukunft zu sehen sein u.a. aus dem Demokratiesemester wie dem Projektkurs »Mapping Cities – Making Cities« in Kooperation mit dem Tagesspiegel.

Thank you for the kind words! All praise to @jona, who created the interactive flowchart during his student research in the @uclab_potsdam, and to #AndrewBoyd, who wrote the #BetterCatastrophe book and reached out to us in the first place. We now have a joint paper under review for @jovi – so stay tuned.
In the meantime, you might also like the flowcharts by our students using the #InteractiveFlowchart:

Happy and honored to give a virtual keynote at the #CrossingFonds Symposium next week in Vancouver/online!
I will speak about conceptual analogues as a versatile vehicle to aid transdisciplinary collaboration in the intersecting contexts of #archives, #visualization and #design.

The program looks amazing and registration is still open. There are discounted rates for students, IBPOC, and emerging/underemployed professionals.

Letztes Jahr haben @nrchtct und Myriel Milicevic den Kurs »Organigrams for/from the future« angeboten und dabei Organisationen besucht, die Einblicke in kooperative Arbeitsweisen gaben.
Während #Organigramme in der Regel traditionelle Unternehmensstrukturen darstellen, untersuchte der Kurs, wie Visualisierungen auch die Fantasie über Arbeit und Wirtschaften anregen können:

Last year, Myriel Milicevic and i offered a nomadic course »Organigrams for/from the future« and visited ten organizations who shared insights about cooperative work practices. While #organigrams tend to represent traditional organizations, we explored how they could also stimulate our imagination. How would an economy built on solidarity, sustainability and survival look like?
In summer of 2022, Lamin Manneh and i held an experimental seminar that we called »Decolonizing Data Visualization – Visualizing Postcolonies«. In this course, we were particularly interested in the bidirectional engagement between #visualization and #decolonization: we wanted to ask critical questions about #DataVis, but also use the creative and communicative capacity of visualization to convey postcolonial issues:
Over the past two summers I had the privilege to co-teach experimental design courses, which not only yielded great projects, but also spawned stimulating discussions and discoveries with our students.
To document these kinds of journeys, Philipp @proff and i prepared #SyllabusSite, a template for rendering #Markdown files as scrollable one-pagers that gather readings, inspirations and results in a unique format:
I notice now in the Advanced Web Interface in my browser on my Macbook that the little double arrow "boost" symbol, when activated, not only changes color (a change invisible to the colorblind) but also gains a small square in the middle (obvious to all, including the colorblind). A kudos to the design team!

during the #c3ux meeting at #37c3 we spoke a lot about inclusive and human-centered design in the context of #opensource projects. this short visual explanation from #fhpotsdam might be of interest: https://youtu.be/ZKzEUAJnOE4 (German audio, English subtitles)
zooming out from a single button to our entire planet (fitting with the intergalactic theme of congress), it introduces central concerns and questions that are probably also relevant for #fossdesign.
the »UX & Human-Centered Design People Networking!« meetup at #37c3 gathered quite a few folks interested in increasing the profile of #interfacedesign and #userexperience in the world of #opensource software and the experience of the congress (e.g., the #fahrplan).
thank you for bringing us together, @pascoda and @janeckhoff and let’s continue via #c3ux
Well done @boris and colleagues, great video about #interfacedesign and #designeducation
