This is the abstract of my thesis. You can find the progress of my project here!
Everyday we are overwhelmed by a huge amount of data, nevertheless we can not perceive them all and most information are lost.
Information Visualization (InfoVis) can help people to find, to select, to interpret and to understand these information in an effective way.
Through my thesis project I would like to design an interactive web application which shows world statistics about the water crisis issue in a thought-provoking manner to help audience to better understand and reason about the problem. At the same time this tool tries to raise awarness on people providing them a framework for monitoring and analysing their life styles, and their impact on society on a simple way, and to help them to change their behaviour.
Fra gli ultimi esami che ho dato all’università (chissà se mi mancheranno una volta finita?) c’era quello di Telecomunicazioni; l’esame consisteva nella produzione di un booklet di ricerca su un campo del design in cui sono usate nuove tecnologie di telecomunicazione.
Per il mio libretto ho scelto di occuparmi della stampa digitale, delle tecnologie utilizzate attualmente e di possibili sviluppi futuri: “La stampa e l’orizzonte tecnologico”.
“The Stone In The Water” is an interactive art installation thought for a very narrow venetian calle. It use lights and sounds to make the street communicate with the people from one side to the other.
“Think the calle as full of water…
When someone enters into it, the person moves the water inside, like a stone thrown into a pond…”
Dopo il mio breve e incompleto tutorial sul funzionamento di un programmino con Arduino, penso sarebbe una cosa saggia inserire un tutorial fatto da Tom Hulbert, un vero professionista in materia. I video sono tratti dal workshop che stiamo facendo all’interno del Laboratorio di Interaction Design 2 allo IUAV – Università di Venezia.
I'm Alice. Now I live in Italy and I'm an interaction designer. I like travels, music, video-making, IxD, Graphic Design, Japanese manga, Harry Potter and fanfiction... But most of all I love photography!!
