This assignment is due Nov 4.

Guided by Workshop 2

Choose a structured dataset connected to a social, cultural, or environmental topic that holds personal significance for you.

You may work with existing and publicly available datasets and visualize it. However, you are encouraged to design and collect new data related to a specific aspect of your life or social issue. Possible themes include, but are not limited to, social inequality, cultural identity, environmental issues, or reflection on surveillance.

Using tools like 3D printing, laser-cutting, or hand-built methods, transform your dataset into a sculptural form. Consider how elements like color, shape, size, texture, and structure can communicate your data’s story.

You are welcome to mix and match different materials or use the 3D printed form as a reference to recreate the sculpture in other materials, expanding the possibilities of how your data is experienced physically.
