Full Body Immersion and Interaction with the Visualisation

Data visualisation is generally described as computer-supported, interactive, visual representations of abstract data used to amplify cognition. (Card at al., 1999)

The Boom of Digital Data Production & Acquisition and Data Storage & Archiving

The total amount of digital information in the world will come to 2.7 zettabytes - thats 2.7 followed by 21 zeros in 2012, according to IDC, a 48 percent increase from 2011. 90 percent of it will be unstructured data like digital video, sound files and images that is challenging to search and retrieve.

The major challenge of data visualisation is the accessibility of large datasets and the efficiency in parsing and interacting with them in meaningful, tangible ways.

how to deal with increasingly diverse and large scale data? how to represent dynamic data-sets efficiently? how to represent data to best allow users to identify patterns or features within it? Data Mining how to deal with macro- and micro-dimension of data? how to enhance visualisation through understanding human perception?

Human Perception and Visualisation

When observer asked to 'give the ages of the people' (see on the left) , their gaze where focused only on people whereas if they were asked to simply look at the picture ,many more fixation occurred also in different areas ( see on the right). The two images are an updated version of Yarbus' original images (Yarbus 1967, p.174 ) that now showing the image and scanpath in an overlap ( Archibald, 2008)
