COURSE SUMMARY

In this era of social media and fake news, have data, science and rigour lost their influence? Can a precise graph be attractive and go viral? Is the problem coming for the speaker, the receiver, the canal or the format? Is it all about communicating in a different way? Undoubtfully, the communication game has changes in our time, the formats, the attention, etc.

This seminar answers those question and provide keys to communicate information, data and knowledge to the general public efficiently, using visible data and 'design musts' pointed out by French philosopher J. F. Lyotard.
