George Legrady | Interactive Visualization Lab

The Interactive Visualization Lab focuses on research and experimental projects in the areas of data visualization, algorithmic processes, computational photography, and interactive installation. Projects are realized as interactive art installations and digital publications, integrating data mapping and data visualization through semantic categorization and self-organizing algorithms. Emphasis is on aesthetic research through the implementation of complex technologies for new forms of content, narratives, experiences and analysis.
