Data drums is coming to Bologna! 👏🏽+📊+🌍=🤔
So excited to share that I'll be closing out the @visualisingclimate.com event in Bologna in Nov with an experimental body-percussion activity based on rhythms and climate emissions from 🇮🇳🇧🇷🇺🇸

Visualising Climate is just two weeks away. I haven't been this excited about a conference for more than a decade. And it won't be a one-time event; we've already chosen the location for the 2027 edition, which we'll announce on November 6th

The programme just came out, so I created a starter pack with the speakers and organizers of the @visualisingclimate.com conference in Bologna in early November.
I found 38 people. Let me know if I got the wrong person or if I overlooked someone.

As an organizer, @annalombardi.bsky.social explains that the purpose of @visualisingclimate.com conference is to bring together scientists, designers and journalists together. The interest has been overwhelming. (I'll be giving one of the talks)
@tomgab.bsky.social from InfoDesignLab, presenting their work on the concept of overshoot, says that most of the creative process is consultation. People may agree on words, but they all have different mental images.
Behind every climate graphic there's science, design and storytelling. @annalombardi.bsky.social shares her creative process and her role as one of the organisers of Visualising Climate, the first global conference on climate dataviz (Bologna, 4–6 Nov 2026) 🌍📊
