Introduction


The DataMIX project aims to explore more inclusive means of communicating data.
 
It was proposed by seven young researchers from different backgrounds who deal with a variety of data on a daily basis: some generate and analyse large volumes of data, some handle multi-dimensional data and some investigate data transformation.

Together they organisied a series of workshops to discuss the format of data, the methods of presenting data, and the effective ways of communicating data. Experts from relevant fields and people with various sensory capability losses were invited to the workshops.

This new book provides a visual summary of the process, the workshops and the conclusions of the DataMIX project

The workshops took place in the University of Birmingham, Brunel University and Open University during a 18-month period. The project aimed to enable the researchers to apply inclusive design thinking across different disciplines, and to evaluate how ‘useful’, ‘usable’ and ‘inclusive’ data from any experiment can be made.


This website showcases the ongoing process, and provides a resource and record of the results of their investigations.

The DataMIX Project was funded as part of NESTA's Crucible programme.
