Data Visualization: The Future of Graphs
Tuesday, August 19th, 2008As many of you know I am in progress of my Masters of Digital Media. In the spring of 2008 the Masters of Digital Media Program and the UBC Fisheries Centre collaborated on a project to produce a virtual ocean.
The two teams got together to visualize and understand human impacts on fish populations. The MDM students were given access to live data of the fish populations off the Gulf of Mexico. They then moved forward and used the blender game engine to visualize the data. They modeled the ocean and then attatched live data to visually show what is happening in the oceans. This in my mind is ground-breaking, visualizing this data effects people more than just numbers and pie charts.
Masters of Digital Media - 1st year meets 2nd year
Friday, August 15th, 2008This afternoon at the Centre for Digital Media, all the students from the first ever cohort welcomed the new first years to the school. Burgers in hand we played massive multiplayer rock- paper- scissors - and continued on with some hoola hooping and nerf toy gun fights. It was great to answer the MANY questions that the new students had. It reminded me of my first orientation with the school. For those of already in the program we are near the end of our internships. After spending 8 very close months together and then not seeing each other for 4, it was a very high energy event! I am very excited for this year and the many adventures and experience that are to be had.
