Dr. Nathalie Riche envisions a future in which all of our data will be accessible, meaningful, compelling and artistic. And as a researcher in human computer interaction and information visualization at Microsoft Research, she’s working on technical tools that will help us wrangle our data, extract knowledge from it, and communicate with it in a memorable, persuasive and aesthetically pleasing way. In other words, she wants our data to be both smart… and beautiful! Today, Dr. Riche shares her passion for the art of data driven storytelling, reveals the two superpowers of data visualization, gives us an inside look at some innovative projects designed to help us th(ink) with digital ink, and tells the story of how a young woman with an artist’s heart headed into computer science, took a detour to the beach, paid for it with research and ended up with a rewarding career that brings both art and computing together. https://www.microsoft.com/research

[If you enjoy our show, consider supporting us on Patreon! You pay the amount of one or two lattes for each episode we publish every two weeks.] In our latest episode, we talk about “C’est La Vis,” a research project developed to teach visualization at the elementary school level. We have two of the project researchers on the show, Basak Alper from NASA JPL and Nathalie Riche from Microsoft Research, to tell us all about it. On the show we talk about the inception of the project, the findings they discovered by both talking to teachers and analyzing visualization materials used in schools, and the “C’est la Vis” prototype they have developed as a way to teach visualization to kids.
