Why is it important?
The visual data are the media which provide powerful and essential means of communication. If “visual data storytelling” is viewed as a process of communication, it follows naturally that how the artist’s performances are conceived, developed, delivered and received, and how the user is attracted, accurately understanding the “big data” , and affected by the data visualization are worth exploring.
Perspectives
This study is intended to propose a framework focusing on how the conception of the artist affects the creation process and how the creation process is understood by the audience. The artist’s creation activities were analyzed through the framework of four steps using case study intended to turn “big data” into “visual data storytelling.”
