Data visualization
Quoting Edward Tufte: “Data graphics visually display measured quantities by
means of the combined use of points, lines, a coordinate system, numbers, symbols, words, shading,
and
color.” Data visualization is about representing graphically a set of data, which can be text,
number,
media, sound, etc. However, as Johana Drucker suggests, data (from Latin datum, given) are
capta,
entities that are taken. When creating a dataset to visualize, someone decides what kind of query pose
to collect specific information: this means that data are never neutral.

As a Data Visualisation designer, my main task is to deliver information through visual models. Depending on the typology of data and audience, I can design bespoke interactive or static graphs, charts, maps, databases, and dashboards, respecting accessibility guidelines and best practices.
