Information Graphics: PDX Edition

This 10-week course aims to explore contemporary information graphics as a design practice as well as an art practice. We will take an in depth look at varies ways designers and artists worldwide working with information to create works that has great impact on our understanding of our lives, past, present, and future. Following the examination of leading practitioners’ work, each student will create two information graphic projects to tell stories of Portland Oregon.

Final Project

This project was all about documenting my trips around Portland as I took photographs. The dates span from November of 2010 to March of 2011. I drew the map by hand and only marked streets relevant to where I went and what I took photos of so it acts as more of a "treasure map" for me and less of a google map. The corresponding contact sheet of photos is chronologically ordered so you can somewhat trace photographs to location on the map.

We have an urgent need to use visualization for socially relevant purposes. –Andrew Vande Moere

Making an evidence presentation is a moral act as well as an intellectual activity. To maintain standards of quality, relevance, and integrity for evidence, consumers of presentations should insist the presenters be held intellectually and ethically responsible for what they show and tell. –Edward R.
