Making data more human: An evening with Jer Thorp

The cutting-edge visualizations of data artist Jer Thorp help us learn about the ways we use digital technologies and become more empathetic in the data age. How can understanding the human side of data lead to innovation and change? In a talk interweaved with beautiful and moving data-visualization projects, Thorp, the current Innovator-in-Residence at the Library of Congress, will illuminate how adding meaning and narrative to data can help people take control of the information that surrounds them and transform the way we use data.

Admission is free. Reservations required. RSVP at visionsandvoices@usc.edu.
