re:publica: The Art of Data-Storytelling - Collaborative practices at the intersection of art, urban research and climate adaptation
Das Programm ist in Englisch ohne deutsche Übersetzung.
Communicating climate data is challenging for scientists. Art-Science collaborations provide innovative data visualization to inspire future living. This session showcases collaboration examples and reflects on their impact.
Amid a global environmental and climate crisis, digital tools are often touted as a key solution for acting more sustainably, reducing emissions and promoting a green transition. Cities, major contributors to climate change, generate increasing data on the crisis's urgency. Developing and managing resilient cities is as important as the narratives we build with these abstract numbers. Artists explore new ways of living, challenge norms, and offer alternative perspectives. Communicating complex climate data is challenging for scientists. The solution seems to lie in the collaboration between art and science offering new perspectives on the visualisation of data. Combining the possibilities of data analysis with artistic thinking and the power of visualisation could have the potential to foster a radical imagination for our future lives. However, the potential of these datasets is underexplored. This session showcases collaboration examples, highlights gaps, and reflects on their impact.
