Thanks for sharing! Of course, you can use it! I think there is space for many models, and no single one is perfect. Mine is meant to stress the relationship between data and the reality connected to it.
it always puzzles me because Pierce or Saussure categories do not provide a good differentiation between what you called symbolic representation versus textual representation. They are both symbol and sign in semiotic but that does not account for the difference of they representational differences. Do you have any paper to recommend for a good typology of representation from cognitive science or semiotic perspective that will clarify this difference ?
I wish I had it, but honestly, it's just my own categorization. But it seems self-evident to me these are separate modes of information processing. The verbal vs. graphical is well established. I don't know about symbolic. Herbert Simon's "problem isomorph" idea goes in that direction, I believe.
It's being built! I am publishing the new lectures here as I produce new ones. Once the whole set of lectures is ready, I'll build a course around it. Would you be interested in taking it?
Really Nice! Thanks for sharing it's inspirational .
However, I am not certain I agree with your pipeline :)
For instance you can use data viz as a raw data collection
( https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613904.3642808 ) or even autographic vis ( https://offenhuber.net/project/autographic-visualization/ )
Jansen & Dragicevic pipeline seems to have more details
(https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6634126/), while it may be to advance for an introduction, this one is more common than the usual use of Infovis in CS
btw can I borrow the pipeline figure for something I will credit you?
best

Also by the way on the "Three modes of communication" -> is verbal verbal or textual ?
Or natural language ? ...
I think the text is its material expression, but on a cognitive level, it's verbal.

Where can I find the actual course?
