Subject: Information Design Summer School - Syros, The Cyclades Islands, 
Greece - Sept 30th-Oct 4th 2013



We have still a 3 places free for our summer school on Information 
Design https://infodesign2013.pns.aegean.gr/



“Come to Syros, Greece for a week of expert tuition and deep discussions 
on Information Design -how to make complex information easier to 
understand, all while savouring late summer warmth.



The summer school is being organised by the University of the Aegean, 
with the participation of the Simplification Centre, London, UK, and the 
International Institute of Information Design (IIID)



Modern life is saturated with complex information and data. For 
information to have the most impact, it must be easy to find, simple to 
use and instant to understand. In short, information needs to be designed.



Information design has developed as a specialist field, with a growing 
research literature and critical tradition. However, specialist 
education and training in information design is hard to find and many 
people come to it from another aspect of design or some other profession 
entirely. As a result, people who want to develop their expertise can 
find themselves isolated, without access to expert help, and often 
without like-minded colleagues.



Enticed? Intrigued?
