Lecture: Data Storytelling Beyond the Visual

Professor Rahul Bhargava introduces arts‑based, participatory approaches to working with data, drawn from his book "Community Data." Through examples like data sculptures, murals, sonification, and embodied theater, he shows how multi‑sensory methods can make data more inclusive and action‑oriented. He argues that meeting today’s datafication challenges requires moving beyond visuals to more creative, community‑driven practices.
