Do you know individuals who seem to focus on one thing for their whole life? I’m on the opposite side of the scale. Inspired by Alli Torban’s “How I’ve spent my time” viz, a course on Domestika from Stefanie Posavec and my interest in doing datavis together with others, I made a workshop to reflect in a group on this topic—with the help of drawing a datavis.
As a former organiser of UX Camp Hamburg—an annual UX bar camp—and now of the DataViz Meetup Hamburg, one of the many things I am curious about is: can I use data visualisation as a tool to foster community and exchange? Thus, I took the opportunity to give a workshop at the above mentioned bar camp. To create a together-datavis about the interests of the participants over time. In a slot of 45 minutes only. To see what happens. To make people talk and think.
