“Are data merely cold numbers? Where is the data from? How can data help us get to know each other? What changes would the big data revolution bring about to design?

Domestic Data Streamers, an internationally-renowned creative studio from Barcelona, has pushed the boundaries of design, art, science and sociology to explore new languages of data and ways of using data to tell stories.

Co-founder Pau Garcia and Creative Director Maria Fabuel will relate to us their past adventures and experimentations with “humanised” data, discuss approaches to use and present data as well as share their points-of-view on the future of design with the three curators of deTour 2022.
