Summary: 40 Jahre Science Visualization Die Sichtbarmachung bzw. Visualisierung von oft verschlüsselten Daten erschließt dem Menschen neue, bisher verborgene, aber durchaus reale Welten. Die Kunst greift all diese neuen Erkenntnisse auf und übersetzt sie mit Visualisierungen in neue Dimensionen. Das Buch versammelt ein breites Spektrum an Beiträgen zur Visualisierung in Wissenschaft, Medien und Kunst: Namhafte Expert:innen und Wegbegleiter:innen des Science Visualization Lab der Universität für angewandte Kunst Wien präsentieren herausragende Beispiele innovativer Visualisierungen und geben Einblick in ihre Arbeitsweisen. Das Buch zeichnet unterschiedliche Zugänge zur Wahrnehmungserweiterung und Sichtbarmachung des Unsichtbaren nach. „Würden die Pforten der Wahrnehmung gereinigt, erschiene den Menschen alles, wie es ist: unendlich.“ – William Blake Einblick in die Denk- und Arbeitsweise renommierter Wissenschaftler:innen, Medienexpert:innen und Künstler:innen Opulentes Buchobjekt mit zahlreichen Abbildungen und Augmented-Reality-Features Mit Beiträgen von Ina Conradi / Mark Chavez, Christian Köberl, Walter Köhler, Thomas Matzek, Markus Müller, Ruth Schnell, Victoria Vesna / James K. Gimzewski, Manfred Wakolbinger u. a.Summary: 40 years of science visualization The visualization of often-encrypted data reveals new, previously hidden, but quite real worlds to humankind. Art adopts these insights and uses them to create new dimensions. This book brings together a wide range of contributions on visualization in science, media, and art. Renowned experts and associates of the Science Visualization Lab at the University of Applied Arts Vienna present examples of outstanding and innovative visualization projects and provide insight into their working methods. The book follows a variety of approaches to expanding perception and rendering the invisible visible. “If the doors of perception were cleansed, every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite.” – William Blake Insight into the thinking and working methods of renowned scientists, media experts, and artists Lavish publication with numerous illustrations and AR features With contributions by Ina Conradi / Mark Chavez, Christian Köberl, Walter Köhler, Thomas Matzek, Markus Müller, Ruth Schnell, Victoria Vesna / James K.
