Communicating with Data
Data visualisation has emerged as an important part of the researcher’s communication toolkit. But how do you optimise graphics to inform and connect with wider audiences? What considerations should you allow for different audiences and publishing platforms? This talk will discuss evolving approaches to the use of data visualisation at the Financial Times. It will conclude by looking at two very different projects by the presenter which explore divergent techniques for taking data to new audiences.
