Hinweis der Redaktion
- I'm Rahul Bhargava, I run Data Therapy and created DataBasic with Catherine D'Ignazio I'm a researcher (Center for Civic Media and teach at MIT - data storytelling studio) I run workshops like this one all over the world - we’ll get hands-on today with these ideas
- Goals: - Shared agreement that data driven processes should be more participatory - Inspirational examples of how to make data more participatory - Experience with activities to include people in a data process
- We all probably agree that data is an asset can be used to spread the message, optimize operations, and bring people together
- 1) Token approval from subject, = no awareness for subject 2) Collected by 3rd parties, for their own purposes= no agency for subject 3) Analyzed with jargon-heavy digital tools = no understanding for subject 4) Decisions made by collector or analyzer = no participation for subject
- With these challenges in mind, how do we do this better? That’s the subject of this workshop Fun is intrinsic, sexy is extrinsic
- Lets try a quick activity to see
- Check your handouts for this data Find a partner, grab some materials,
- With these challenges in mind, how do we do this better? That’s the subject of this workshop
- The inspiratinos we look to matter Colored dots on black lines are not accessible
- There is a richer history that we can pull from, if we look across disciplines, and it uses the power of the arts to engage people
- One version of a process for going from data to story Other people use circles, triangles, etc. All these are opportunities to engage people
- rely on physical mappings to represent the data Might recognize this from Hans Rosling’s famous videos with rocks, but this is participatory Inspiring because it shows even traditional charts and graphs can work with rural audiences
- Boston wanted a participatory approach to longer term strategic planning as it pertains to transit Collected qualitative data for a few months Brought together community to analyze it
- Educator, innovator, feminist Included these visualizations of history in her books Grid was a year, color was country, sub-rectangle was type of event Drew them on giant fabrics, toured with them, and stood around them and talked about history
- We created a quite of tools to help bring these inspirations to the digital age
- Share back afterwards
- We created a quite of tools to help bring these inspirations to the digital age
- Hopefully with these inspirations I’ve demonstrate a different approach to including people in data analysis, aligned with bringing people together and spreading the message each point is an opportunity
- We do have some funding coming in to build a NGO-specific entry point to DataBasic, In addition to DataBasic, my activities are all online on datatherapy.org Hoping for funding to turn these offline activities into a toolkit, or at least write them up better
- We all probably agree that data is an asset can be used to spread the message, optimize operations, and bring people together
