*Regular readers will be somewhat aware of my involvement in a research
project called 'Seeing Data', a 15 month study funded by the UK Arts and
Humanities Research Council and led by Professor Helen Kennedy from the
University of Sheffield.*

The aim of 'Seeing Data' was to further our understanding about how people
make sense of data visualisations. Through learning about the ways in which
people engage with data visualisations our aim was to provide some key
resources for the general public, to help them develop the skills they need
to interact with visualisations, and also for visualisation
designers/producers, to help them understand what matters to the people who
view and engage with their visualisations.

We are now concluding our findings and beginning our dissemination of a
range of outputs to fulfil our aims.
