I'm pretty sure I'm connected to people here in the NYC area and qualified to teach the basics of #infoviz and #dataviz. We have an emergent need at Parsons School of Design for this fall, so reach out if this might be of interest! Feel free to share with your NYC-based network.
Here's the course page:
Information Visualization | Course Catalog | The New School
This project-based course introduces information theory and the various means of visually representing the world with the intention of uncovering hidden realities and effects. Throughout the course, students explore, analyse and reconfigure quantitative and qualitative data and use fundamental graphical principles to present their findings. Students hence engage with mapping as a creative activity that sets the stage for the planning of design interventions. Open to: BBA Strategic Design and Management majors, Data Visualization minors, and Immersive Storytelling minors; other students with permission of BBA in Strategic Design and Management program. Pre-requisite(s): LMTH 1950 Quantitative Reasoning I; and PUFY 1030 Drawing/Imaging.
