This three-hour workshop will gather data visualization and HCI researchers and practitioners to explore the possibilities of data representation using craft techniques. Participants will submit a 2-4 page document including (i) a statement of their craft experience, (ii) representative images of physicalizations they have created using this craft technique, and (iii) a discussion of opportunities and challenges for physicalizing data in their craft domain. During the workshop, participants and organizers will work in groups to brainstorm ways of representing data through their shared craft of interest. Then, every group proposes a synthesis of opportunities and challenges of the craft technique they worked with. Together, the community will chart a research agenda on how craft can expand the design space of data physicalization, inform the creation of more expressive and accessible authoring tools, and raise new questions around aesthetics, accuracy, and the role of slow making in data representation.
