2022 has been a monumental year, with a seemingly endless stream of major news events. Join us for an evening with the experts who communicate this news through data and visualisation. You will hear from Ben Walker (New Statesman) about the state of public opinion. Olivia Vane (The Economist) will walk us through an interactive data project that incorporated sounds and images from Spotify, and we will also be joined by Sam Joiner, Alexandra Heal and Dan Clark from the Financial Times who will talk about data-driven war reporting using drones, maps and satellite imagery.
James Cheshire (UCL Social Data Institute) will round off the evening with a discussion and some thoughts about what developments in data and visualisation we might look forward to in 2023.
