Data visualization workshop in Lisbon
Apr 3rd, 2009, 1:58pm
 
Dear all,

from April 20-22 I'll be teaching an intense 3-day workshop (7 hours per day) about data visualization at CADA in Lisbon. The workshop will be focused on our beloved Processing, but we'll also make use of other tools & languages for parts of the visualization creation process. To allow us to better concentrate on the topic at hand, you should have at least a good understanding of Processing basics and general programming constructs.

If you're interested you can find more info, an initial outline & details are on the CADA website and on my blog:

(A workshop wiki is also in preparation)

Understood, though that fee has nothing to do with me... That's what CADA has usually been charging for all their other workshops too.

And on the other hand, I'd also say this topic has a bit more "reality context" than a generic, basic Processing course. So you might even consider it an investment. The subjects we'll cover should give enough insights & skills to produce all aspects of visualizations and there's a growing demand for skilled people in that field...

although its a lot of money for me too i would definitely spend it.
Like toxi says, if you see it as an investment in your skills its worth it.
I guess i could improve my already existing knowledge about data visualisation and realtime visualisation, so out would pay off soon enough.
