Description Data visualization is everywhere! It’s in your health records and in the advertising section of your morning news paper (if you still read such things.) It makes us laugh, it makes us wonder and it can make us outright angry. It’s used for art and it’s used to sell you cereal, all the while helping scientists cure cancer. What will come of data visualization as a medium? Are our concerns unnecessary or should we take swift action to save this form of communication? Join our controversial conversation where we’ll discuss the many uses of data visualization and what the future might (or should) hold in store.
