当身体成为数据:历史数据文化与解剖学插图

When the Body Became Data: Historical Data Cultures and Anatomical Illustration

Michael Correll, Laura A. Garrison

AI总结:

本文通过历史解剖学插图考察不同数据文化如何塑造身体信息的收集、传播与说服力,强调当代可视化设计必须关注数据文化背景,并呼吁将可视化视为时代与地域的产物而非客观数据的无背景镜像。

摘要:

随着人们对知识、医学、艺术和技术的态度不断变化,人体已成为一种信息来源,并最终成为可共享、可分析的数据。几个世纪以来,关于身体的插图与可视化作品都是在特定的历史、社会和政治背景下产生的。这些背景交织在不同的所谓数据文化之中:即数据、知识和信息被概念化、收集、结构化与共享的方式。在这项工作中,我们探讨了关于身体的信息是如何被收集的,以及由此产生的图像的传播、影响和说服力。我们展示了关注数据文化影响对于当今可视化设计师、研究者和消费者仍然至关重要。最后,我们呼吁该领域反思:可视化并不是对客观数据的永恒且脱离背景的镜像,而是与过去的可视化一样,同样是我们所处时代与地域的产物。

英文摘要:

With changing attitudes around knowledge, medicine, art, and technology, the human body has become a source of information and, ultimately, shareable and analyzable data. Centuries of illustrations and visualizations of the body occur within particular historical, social, and political contexts. These contexts are enmeshed in different so-called data cultures: ways that data, knowledge, and information are conceptualized and collected, structured and shared. In this work, we explore how information about the body was collected as well as the circulation, impact, and persuasive force of the resulting images. We show how mindfulness of data cultural influences remain crucial for today's designers, researchers, and consumers of visualizations. We conclude with a call for the field to reflect on how visualizations are not timeless and contextless mirrors on objective data, but as much a product of our time and place as the visualizations of the past.
