Lecture 1 | History of Information Visualization First lecture was on the history of information visualization.
LECTURE 2 | Manuel Lima's 9 Directive Manifesto
Second lecture was based on the 9 Directive Manifesto of Manuel Lima. A group presentation was to be prepared and presented. Below is our group presentation.
LECTURE 3 | L.A.T.C.H
For the third lecture was about Saul Wurman's L.A.T.C.H a method of information organization, consisting of Location, Alphabet, Time, Category, and Hierarchy. Below is the our groups knowledge on the topic.
LECTURE 4 | CHUNKING
This week our presentation was on Millers Law: Chunking. Chunking is the function of grouping information together by perceptual features. It allows the brain cells to increase the short term memory as the information is stored in small chunks rather than huge blocks of information.
Below is our group presentation about the above mentioned theory.
LECTURE 5 | ISOMETRIC DESIGN
This week our presentation was based on Isometric Design. Isometric design allows an artist to draw the objects in three dimensions. It is usually practiced by engineers and architectures. Below is our groups presentation on the topic.
