    Data Materialized: An Introduction to a Creative Workflow Translating Data Into Form

Program Title:


    Labs Hands-On Class

Organizer(s)/Presenter(s):



Description:


    We will guide participants through a workflow we call data materialization; a sub-genre of data art combining concept and data to generate 3D forms to be fabricated in a meaningful material. The universal feeling of worry will be the theme of this session; participants will design data worry beads.
