Network Mapping & Analysis Workshop
Burak Arikan, artist, ITU architect, MIT Media Lab alumni/ITP adjunct, this year’s ISEA co-chair (bio here) is coming to Shanghai in the end of June, and is giving out lecture and workshop.
Time: Talk/Lecture: June 28th, Tuesday, 19:00-21:00

Venue: Xindanwei, 50 Yongjia Rd., Shanghai
Cost: 30 rmb/person/night, coffee and tea served
Lecturer: Burak Arikan
Organizer: Xindanwei, Arthub Asia
About the event:
One day workshop focusing on the design and understanding of complex networks through mapping and visual analysis. Starting from hands on simple drawing exercises participants gradually build complex compositions on the computer. Emphasis on network topology, relationship types, information modeling, visual analysis, centralization, and clustering. Participants learn the most through observing, sketching, collaborating, and participating in the discussions.
Graph Commons will be used for the exercises.

PART I: How to map networks?
Graph theory, relationship types, network topologies, modeling
PART II: How to analyze networks?
Centralization, clustering, structural holes
About the lecturer:
Burak works with network structures and dynamics to explore issues in techno-politics and alternative economics. His creative network workshop series is focusing on the design of large scale networks as a creative activity and expanding the individual’s thinking about the network as a creative medium.

I’m impressed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and entertaining, and without a
doubt, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The problem is something too
few people are speaking intelligently about. Now i’m very
happy that I found this in my search for something regarding
this.
Nice blog here! Additionally your web site quite a
bit up fast! What host are you the usage of? Can I am getting your associate
link for your host? I wish my web site loaded up as
fast as yours lol
Thanks everyone, I hope you enjoyed it. Will put some documentation online.
I will be in Beijing July 6th-9th, then in Shanghai July 9th-12th. Lets see if we can meetup for a drink. Best. -Burak
Hi all …. had fun at the event! it would be cool to follow up to talk about graphing/mapping stuff later at Xindanwei or other places in Shanghai!
also, here are a couple of links:
1) Burak’s graphing site: http://graphcommons.com/
2) http://graphml.graphdrawing.org/
seems to be a lot more stuff out there please share if you come across anything cool!!!!

很少有能够关于Visualization的讲座与Workshop，感谢分享。
@Steven: This is it. Don’t worry, we will ask to register on site again.;)
@boygod1986: Workshop participants should bring their laptop for the mapping exercises！！！
Should I take my computer?
Any software should I install?
we’ll be there, i am actually working on these topics already, always good to exchange
Count me in. I’ll promise not LT :p
艺术家让我顺便告诉大家让大家带上电脑直接开干！：Workshop participants should bring their laptop for the mapping exercises！！！
Looks great. Will be there!
checked~
Always need a graceful way to sort out complex system~
no advance registered required?
would be nicer if we could instantly share what we check in here to weibo
