Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation.

This document provides tips for improving presentation skills for teachers. It recommends using visual images to engage students and tell a story. Teachers should simplify presentations by using empty space, fewer words per slide, and sans serif fonts like Helvetica. Bullet points should be avoided and the message should be repeated to reinforce it. Practice is important to avoid reading slides verbatim.
The document discusses Walter J. Ong's ideas about primary orality, literacy, and secondary orality/literacy and how these concepts have evolved with new media technologies. It suggests that secondary literacy exhibited through technologies like social media is dissonant for primarily literate cultures in the same way secondary orality was dissonant for oral cultures. This leads to discussions on how these shifts impact education, associations, and production models.
This document discusses drawing and the exploration of different drawing processes and styles. It provides quotes about drawing from various artists and illustrates that drawing is a fundamental part of an illustrator's practice.

This document discusses definitions and perspectives on art. It notes that art is more than just a medium - it is the expression of human experience. Art is uniquely human and tied to culture, and allows us to experience a wide range of emotions. The definition of art is constantly evolving as culture changes. Art history, anthropology and literature can provide insights into the human past by observing, recording and interpreting visual art and other works. How we define art comes down to agreement and cultural norms.
1) Art is performed by everyone in many forms and is essential to society. It allows people to express themselves and communicate with others.
2) Creating art allows people to focus their minds and better understand their experiences and surroundings. It tells stories and conveys emotions in a profound way.
3) Art has existed for thousands of years, dating back to early humans drawing pictures in caves. It has continued to evolve over time but remains a vital part of human culture and expression.

10. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
My work currently hinges upon a precarious balance on the fulcrum of time. Place may be unclear
or transparent. Forms may be recognizable or abstract. I take random acts strewn throughout my
life and attempt to weave them into an abstract tapestry of beauty. I find structures of meaning for
the seemingly chaotic—an aesthetic dance derived from the ugly or uneventful.
Life can seem like scattered, random acts strewn in an arbitrary manner, constrained only by days,
weeks and years. I constantly attempt to find meaning and see patterns of beauty in overlapping,
entangling events and the endless parade of images.
The formal properties of this body of work attempt to parallel symbolic meanings through the
expression of formal elements. Opaque shapes push against the constraints of dark lines in
opposition with the backgroundʼs transparency.
Stepping back from the surface of my lifeʼs canvas, I often find order, beauty and harmony in the
chaotic messiness of living. The ebb and flow of countless events fill our daily lives, becoming part
of a larger aesthetic where beauty can be revealed and potential meaning embraced.

It has also been interesting to discover that the very system
which instructs and produces artists in schools, generally
causes art teachers to stop producing art. Here is an opportu-
nity to rediscover your creative side and express your
thoughts, either visually or in words. These sketchbooks will
spread out into the community and will return within the next
year.

painting a picture is not to make a
picture-however unreasonable this
may sound. The picture, if a picture
results, is a by-product and may be
useful, valuable, interesting as a sign
of what has past. The object, which
is in back of every true work of art, is
the attainment of a state of being,
a more than ordinary moment of
existence.”
