Information Design

The subject of final project for this class is Comparative Information about San Francisco. We have to find out a new way to represent two different but related informations and also create interaction. After taking this class, I started to think about the importance to visualize clear information that makes people easier to understand, especially it's interactive.

Information design is based on professional graphic design, but like the teacher said, most of New Media students have so suck graphic design background. I guess it's because that we learn too much new tech and forget to think more then put the concept in. Or acutally we have already think,but after we start working, everything becomes more technological without thoughts. In this class, I'm trying to think more and do more research before using programs. The teacher, JB has no strong computer skills, but he has strong ideas and sensitive visualization to push us. It's the only one good class so far I have taken over here, but I hope it's not the last one!
