The Sensory Worlds of Different Animals

What can our senses teach us about data? What can data teach us about our senses? 

In this episode, we interview Jordan Wirfs-Brock about how we can explore data through all of our senses, especially through the sense of sound.

Jordan Wirfs-Brock recently completed a PhD in Information Science at the University of Colorado Boulder and will be joining Whitman College as an assistant professor in Computer Science in January. Her research explores how to bring data into our everyday lives as a creative material by developing data representations that are participatory and engage all of our senses, especially sound. In the past, she has worked as a data journalist covering the energy industry and as a civic technologist helping non-profit organizations understand their communities through data.
