· IDC24 conference line-up ·
The IDC24 line-up has been announced! From news graphics to space visuals for NASA, from data art to viral videos: we have put together a versatile line-up for the 16th edition of the conference with information designers from eight different countries.
Mark SubbaRao (NASA)
Is there anything more intriguing than outer space? Our keynote speaker Mark Subbarao is the leading visualization designer at none other than the American space agency NASA.
Melinda Sipos
From data sets to data sculptures: Melinda Sipos creates physical, data-driven installations with natural materials such as rope, paper and wood.
Eva Hilhorst
Reporting the news with images instead of words. Eva Hilhorst draws the news in a refreshing, comical and storylike way for her platform Drawing The Times.
Mariano Zafra (Reuters)
The dataviz department at Reuters is an award-winning stronghold that illustrates news events from all around the world. Senior editor Mariano Zafra will share a behind the scenes view of the renowned news agency.
Tiziana Alocci
London-based Tiziana Alocci combines data with art and technology, to create aesthetically-pleasing, and factually-correct images made up of shapes and waves.
Atlasova
Atlasova makes digestible geo-facts in fresh pink designs that are uber nerdy yet highly viral on Instagram and TikTok.
Kontinentalist
All the way from Singapore, Kontinentalist produces bespoke visual data-driven stories focused on Asia. Their goal? To bridge the gap between research and the public.
Cristina Tarquini
Immersive, interactive and impactful: three words to describe Cristina Tarquini’s beautiful, artistic and technology-driven work.
Wobby
Wobby is an innovative AI-driven web tool that makes it easy for data analysts and journalists to “chat with their dataset” and discover new insights. Smooth and easy!
Theo Deutinger
Theo Deutinger combines architecture and graphic design with analytic research. His minimalistic work stands out for being eye-catching with a hint of activism.
De Grote Podcastlas
An audio version of the atlas? Oh, hell yeah! From the weirdest flags to the weirdest facts, these three quirky geo nerds bring cold facts with warm hearts.
