We’re very excited about the next addition to our VizThink Berlin agenda, Yuri Engelhardt.  He is an expert in visual language and communication.  In fact, you may remember him from our podcast, Visual Language: Linear vs. Non-Linear along with Dave Gray and Neil Cohn discussing what qualifies as visual language.  Now, Yuri is bringing his expertise to our first live, in person, European event in Berlin this October.

Yuri is an Assistant Professor in Mediastudies and Information Visualization at the University of Amsterdam, and lecturer in Information Graphics at the Utrecht Graduate School of Visual Art and Design, in the Netherlands. He is interested in principles underlying the visual communication of information, from ancient pictorial inscriptions to interactive data visualizations. He also combines his expertise concerning diagrams, graphics, information visualization and visual language theory with his desire to do something useful concerning social and environmental issues.  Among many other things, Yuri has written The Language of Graphics. For more details about Yuri, be sure to check out his complete bio.

Our website has a complete list of VizThink Berlin facilitators and sessions can be found on our wiki.  Be sure to Register Now to take advantage of the last few days of the early registration discount.
