We will explore how translating between sensory modalities might support creative technology designby focusing on the domain of data representation and the method of sketching: How can we sketchacross the senses in order to creatively map data to experience?

Share a specific data set you areinterested in and some rough ideas for how you might represent it in a range of senses (sight,sound, taste, etc.)?
