Nicky Case’s presentations are as ingenious, compelling, and graphically rich as the visualizing tools and games he creates for understanding complex dynamic systems.
Case writes: “We need to see the non-linear feedback loops between culture, economics, and technology. We need to see how collective behavior emerges from individual minds and motives. We need new tools, theories, and visualizations to help people talk across disciplines.” Case is the creator of: Parable of the Polygons (02014); Coming Out Simulator (02014); We Become What We Behold (02016); To Build A Better Ballot (02016); and LOOPY (02017).
