Edinburgh Science Festival: Code Your Own Data Selfie
Join our data science team to create a data-driven piece of digital art about the person you know best: you!
About Edinburgh Science Festival: Code Your Own Data Selfie
Ages 8 - 15
Join our data science team to create a data-driven piece of digital art about the person you know best: you. Learn about data visualisation and how data can be used to create art.
In this practical workshop, you’ll get to code your own self-portrait using personal data. Your self-portrait is unique to you. You’ll use data visualisation software to create an abstract drawing based on data you choose to share about yourself. You’ll also get to look behind the code to discover how it works. No previous experience of data science or coding is required.
Children must be accompanied by an adult during this workshop.
