The Master of Science in Visualization integrates art and technology to prepare students to become creative and pragmatic leaders. The program fosters the development of focused expertise and a broad foundation of knowledge in the artistic, scientific, cognitive, and technical aspects of the discipline. Students select an area of focus and complete a research thesis or capstone project. Areas of emphasis include augmented and virtual reality, computer animation, computer graphics, data visualization, game design and development, virtual production, interactive design, and user experience design.

Design Mindset, Yanko Design's weekly podcast, treats the creative process as something you can actively shape rather than something that just happens to you. Each episode digs into the habits, mental models, and practical tools that move designers from tentative to decisive, from endlessly tweaking to actually shipping work. Now in its fourteenth episode, the show is starting to feel like a standing studio critique in audio form, where process and mindset get equal billing with aesthetics.

The pandas DataFrame is a structure that contains two-dimensional data and its corresponding labels. DataFrames are widely used in data science, machine learning, scientific computing, and many other data-intensive fields. DataFrames are similar to SQL tables or the spreadsheets that you work with in Excel or Calc.

Pol Gasco is 21 years old and he dreams of driving a light blue Lamborghini, living in Miami, and earning more than $10,000 a month. To achieve this dream, he listens to podcasts about Bitcoin, has read Think and Grow Rich several times, and has posted a dream map next to his computer screen. The more you visualize it, the more you attract it, he says of his collage of postcards showing 50 bills, the Statue of Liberty, a glass-enclosed mansion with an infinity pool,

"What do you think would look better: pink or green?" The bubblegum hue won. A scientist from the Swiss public university ETH Zurich nodded, pulling out a bottle of pink dye to release from the top of the Rhone Glacier in the Swiss Alps. Turning the rivulet flowing down a melting glacier into a bright-pink stream was the least scientific test carried out this day.

This month's executive function skill is working memory. Executive function skills are brain-based skills that help us "get things done" easily-or not-depending on our particular brain. Working memory is the ability to retain pertinent information in your mind while engaging in daily activities (Mutti-Driscoll, 2024). Indicators that working memory may be challenging for you include walking into a different room and forgetting why you went there, or picking up your phone and not remembering what you were doing when you did so.

The late James Doty, a neurosurgeon and professor at Stanford University, wrote in his 2024 book "Mind Magic" about how meditation paired with repetition of messages can change a person's subconscious. This could look like closing your eyes before bed to relax, meditating and visualizing an intention like earning a new job title or mastering piano. Afterward, write the intention on a piece of paper and keep it nearby, reading it often.

When I start my work, I first close my eyes and collect all of my ideas from every perspective, then work on it.
