[ecrea] cfp: Culture/Politics of Datavis

The registration deadline for the above event has been extended to 
FRIDAY 16TH SEPTEMBER - book now to secure your place!

*Culture & Politics of Data Visualisation, Monday 10th October, 2016, 
University of Sheffield
*
This one-day conference addresses the culture and politics of data 
visualisation, brings critical thought into dialogue with the practice 
and potential of visualising data and considers how they might inform 
each other. In this way, it is neither a ‘show & tell’ nor a critique of 
datavis as ideologically implicated, but a space for productive exchange 
between critical thinking and datavis practice.
