From Theory to Practice: Projects at the FH Potsdam at a Glance

Research cooperation with the Jewish Museum Berlin on the visualisation of anti-Semitic acts of violence between 1930 and 1938

VIDAN develops new interaction and visualisation techniques for the representation and exploration of complex data

Project to investigate and demonstrate a research technology for historical network analysis

Research cooperation with the Theodor Fontane Archive Potsdam

The Close-Up Cloud introduces a visualisation approach that challenges the separation of overview and detail. For this, the iconographic details of images are summarised to reveal visual patterns in a collection and to stimulate exploration through the holdings.

Cooperation with the German National Library to research interactive visualisations of a comprehensive bibliographic collection

In the "Design nicht 0815" project, the curricula of the design degree programmes at FH Potsdam are being further developed with the aim of integrating central competences for the digitally shaped world of work.

In this project, we explore the potential of dynamic arrangements of a comprehensive coin collection based on different facets such as origin, material type, period, weight and size. The resulting layouts push the boundary between the physical display of coins and the representation of abstract data patterns that characterise the collection.

As part of the Visualisation of Cultural Collections project, graphical user interfaces for the interactive viewing of cultural objects are being researched. In co-operation with an innovative company in the field of media databases and a cultural institution with historically significant collections, scenarios and techniques for the visual exploration of cultural collections are being developed.
