Description
This interactive session will involve the audience co-brainstorming a representational diagram or model about a common phenomenon. As this is drawn on-the-fly, the group will consider various features of a diagram in order to surface how these are created and visually interpreted. Some basic elements to be considered: shapes, shape sizing and comparatives, line thicknesses, labels, arrows, relations in space, foreground / background, color, 2D and 3D, and other factors. Along the way, some of Microsoft Visio’s common features (templates, shapes, grouping, send-to-back / bring forward) will be discussed, and some aspects of human visual perception will be explored. If time allows, the group will alt-text their diagram with a textual version of the images information.
