DVB302 Data Visualisation and Information Design - selected interactive lectures

 

Screengrab from video on chartjunk, within the interactive lecture. This shows a design with chartjunk, occlusion and perceptual effects all impacting the design’s integrity.

INTEGRITY, ENGAGEMENT & DATA DENSITY | Welcome to week 3 Lecture

This weeks lecture looks at 6 more principles of info design, many of which also relate to Integrity. They are accuracy of representation; lie factor; data ink incl. non-data ink and non-ink; chart junk; perceptual issues & occlusion; and balancing integrity and engagement . Also covered is a key technical concept - Data Density - and the technical aspect of the information designs you need to create for both assignments, including an introduction into Multivariate designs
