今天，有数以百万的人在使用网络，并且这个数字还在急剧增加。然而，这样一个虚拟的群体常常是无形的。在这门课程中，我们将会一同去审视一些途径，通过这些途径可以使那些虚拟人群，使他们的行动及交往趋于可视化。同学们将通过阅读社会学及心理学的相关读物，通过界面设计的学习了解到社会得以形象化的认知和文化基础。进而通过一系列设计训练去探索能够用来描述虚拟群体和绘制电子空间的新方法。
Millions of people are on-line today and the number is rapidly growing - yet this virtual crowd is often invisible. In this course we will examine ways of visualizing people, their activities and their interactions. Students will study the cognitive and cultural basis for social visualization through readings drawn from sociology, psychology and interface design and they will explore new ways of depicting virtual crowds and mapping electronic spaces through a series of design exercises.
