Intention
There are many branches of visual practice developing rapidly, from graphic facilitation, to graphic recording, to sketchnoting, to generative graphics. In the prior two sessions we explored potential axis for display and metaphors that might help us visualize and provide further definition to the field. Mathias and David chose the archipelago metaphor and worked on it during the EuViz conference. In the final keynote the big map was presented and David facilitated the entire audience indicating where they were participating in various communities of practice, depicted as islands. We will share this final version and continue our exploration on line. Here is a small cutout from the map to give you a taste.
Key Questions for Exploration
- What are the meaningful axes of development?
- What are the predominant practice areas?
- Can we estimate the scale of different practice areas?
- Are there identifiable thought leaders?
- Who else is tracking this field?
