The list of facilitators for VizThink Europe continues to grow and diversify.  Today we’re excited to announce the addition of Manuel Lima, founder of VisualComplexity.com and Senior User Experience Designer at Nokia’s Services and User Interface Design (SUID) team.  The Visual Complexity website contains a fascinating and seemingly endless look at his projects including a wide array of data and network visualizations.

Manuel Lima is an interaction designer, information architect, design researcher. In 2002 he completed a 5-year BFA in Industrial Design at the Faculty of Architecture – UTL Lisbon and finished a 7-month internship at the design firm Kontrapunkt, in Copenhagen, Denmark. In May 2005 Manuel Lima completed his MFA degree from the Design+Technology program at Parsons School of Design, New York. For this purpose he received scholarships from Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, the Luso-American Foundation and a Dean’s scholarship from Parsons School of Design.

During the course of the MFA program Manuel worked for Siemens Corporate Research Center, the American Museum of Moving Image and Parsons Institute for Information Mapping in research projects for the National Geo-Spatial Intelligence Agency.  After 3 years living, studying, working and teaching in New York City, Manuel moved to London where he currently works.

We will be posting our podcast with him in a few weeks.  In the meantime, be sure to come to VizThink Europe ‘08 to get the chance to learn more about visual complexity design!  Be sure to Register Now to reserve your space at the conference.
