IMAGINE IF YOU COULD TOUCH AND FEEL BIG DATA, IN REAL TIME…BY STEPPING INTO IT!
WHAT NEW INSIGHTS WOULD WE HAVE?
I am building immersive visualizations of global systems data and a platform for researchers to push their work into this new frontier of experiential design to yield new insights.
The Researcher’s Journey
DANCING WITH DATA…
What might we discover if data and algorithms were dimensional?
What insights into ADJACENT POSSIBILITIES and GREY AREAS could the full human sensory array, complemented by AI generate?

VISION
The intention is to link existing technologies into several formats/frameworks creating aesthetic and interactive experiences to support complex problem solving, or more precisely, interventions in systems that we didn’t discover with earlier tools.
Secondary goal is to see the efficacy of this medium for troubleshooting algorithms, and datasets.

What might that evoke in us?
Dimensional, Colorful, Immersive, Haptic, Dynamic, Layered…
What would a climate holodeck look like?…
GROUNDED IN SCIENCE
The Dataverse Holodeck is intended to offer an ever evolving next level set of tools to support researchers, many of whom have already exhausted all existing means of analyzing and explaining their data and of testing their algorithms, including 3D visualizations and/or animations.
Just as graphs revolutionized scientific practice, and helped reframe critical inquiry, we believe that the pairing of science - big data - and mixed reality in experiential design will yield a next level set of insights and is one of the inevitable interfaces for calibrating AI-Human collaboration.
The Ah-ha’s!
