Data visualization in gaming
Presenter: Jacob Turola & Alexandra Wong
Drop-in and discover how different video games use data and data visualization to aid game play and tell stories. Participants will explore various types of data visualizations, from mini-maps to energy bars, and aspects of data design like colour choices and size, to better understand how these small features impact the overall functionality and aesthetics of games.
This workshop will showcase the combined abilities of the newly opened Markham Library’s Visualization Studio and Gaming Lab. Attendees are welcome to drop-in anytime and stay for as long as desired during the workshop’s hours to play, watch, and discuss how games visualize data.
