Handbook

This course examines the principles of information architecture design as they apply to the context content and users of immersive visualisations and simulations. You will learn about systems for data classification and metadata labelling, search methodologies and user navigation, and how these may be translated into interactive systems for embodied environments. The course will help you understand how to move beyond simple technical schemas for data organisation, to consider how the physical and social spaces in which these data are encountered affect the formation of knowledge in users. In doing so, your will combine human-centred design considerations with artificial intelligence-assisted data management practices, and explore new methods for interpreting and visualising information for applications in immersive media.
