Crafting with Data: Weaving 101

“Crafting with Data” explores data analysis and visualization from a data feminist perspective, examining methods for critical making and physicalization through arts and crafts. Data physicalizations create tangible, embodied representations of data, engaging both creators and audiences in the labor behind the data, its contents, and presentation.

Participants of all experience levels with data analysis, visualization, and craft are welcome to join this interactive workshop and discussion where we will examine datasets from a data feminist framework before exploring data physicalization.

The workshop will guide participants through the basics of weaving, but you are welcome to bring supplies and explore visualization through felting, crochet, drawing, or whatever interests you. The workshop is scheduled until 1pm, but we will stick around for open creative time.

Please bring:

  • A laptop
