New Challenges for Data Design

Über den Autor

Designer and founder of the FXDESIGNSTUDIO digital design agency, and also Associate Professor at the University of Valenciennes and Hainaut-Cambresis (FRANCE), Dr. David Bihanic is of the rising generation of design professionals for whom originality refers specifically to their (learning and professional) transversal path. Dr. D. Bihanic is presently Head of the Master's degree in Digital Design and Vice-Director of the laboratory CALHISTE (Culture, Arts/Design, Literature, History of Societies and Foreign Territories).Dr. D. Bihanic examines the new paradigms of information visualization and manipulation of large and complex rich databases - it deals with recent design attempts in order to present multi-dimensional data graphically by mapping data and properties to different visual shapes, colors, and positions (e.g. experimental works which investigate novel ways of exploring information).Dr. D. Bihanic have been working as information designer at Thomson France R&D center. Through this experience, he received the expert status for his studies of systems dealing with the handling and processing of media covered information. Today, his research is mainly centered upon new "end-user" interfaces (map-like, tangible, relationship-based interfaces, etc.). Author of several papers relating to the new stakes of design, Dr D. Bihanic takes an active part in the evolution and transformations occurring in this field.List of authors: Ali Almossawi Mozilla Corporation, San Francisco, CA, USA David Bihanic CALHISTE Laboratory, University of Valenciennes and Hainaut-Cambresis, Valenciennes, France Rachel Binx Walnut, CA, USA Arlene Birt Background Stories, Ames, IA, USA Alberto Cairo University of Miami, Coral Gables, FL, USA Andy Cameron New York, NY, USA Giorgio Caviglia Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA Dino Citraro Periscopic, Portland, OR, USA Nicholas Felton New York, NY, USA Steffen Fiedler Studio NAND, Berlin, Germany Fabien Girardin Near Future Laboratory, Sierre, Switzerland Wesley Grubbs Pitch Interactive, Berkeley, CA, USA Jonathan Harris New York, NY, USA Sha Hwang Walnut, CA, USA Jonas Loh Studio NAND, Berlin, Germany Giorgia Lupi Accurat, New York, NY, USA Pablo Martínez-Díez Tech (UPC), Barcelona, Spain; BAU Design College of Barcelona, Universitat de Vic (UVIC), Barcelona, Spain Scott Murray University of San Francisco (USF), San Francisco, CA, USA Santiago Ortiz Moebio, Buenos Aires, Argentina Stefanie Posavec London, UK Kim Rees Periscopic, Portland, OR, USA Mar Santamaria-Varas School of Architecture of Barcelona (ETSAB), Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain Moritz Stefaner Lilienthal, Germany Stephan Thiel Studio NAND, Berlin, Germany Jan Willem Tulp TULP Interactive, The Hague, The Netherlands Giorgio Uboldi Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy Richard Vijgen Richard Vijgen Studio, GT, Arnhem, The Netherlands Christopher Warnow Wuerzburg, Bavaria, Germany Benjamin Wiederkehr Interactive Things, Zürich, Switzerland Ben Willers Lincoln, UK
