Medialab-Prado's Visualizar program is a research and education platform
devoted to exploring the culture of Big Data and its impact today in
science, society and the arts.

Since its first edition in 2007 the program has gathered more than one
hundred participants from all over the world who have developed projects
explaining stories about phenomena like pollution levels and traffic
flows within big cities, the use of social networks in political
campaigns or the financing of cultural institutions.

Each Visualizar edition includes an intensive project development
workshop, a conference, educational activities open to the public and
the exhibition of the developed projects.

Directed by José Luis de Vicente. With the support of Bestiario
