Description

Innovations in interactive mapping have exploded recently: media artists all over the world are harnessing mobile platforms and geospatial technologies to tell stories in new ways. Visual analytics are more important than ever, and are being used to trace narrative arcs globally, to track audience participation, measure engagement, and assess the social impact of media. Documentary filmmakers are architecting new outreach models based in mapping code, semantic search functionality, and even computational linguistics.
