Abstract
For many people outside of scientific community statistical information and graphics remain abstract and unintelligible regardless of progress of an information technology and extensive growth of an information network. This research investigates how we might interrogate statistical information from the engineering sector through the creation of material/physical objects, with the intention of bringing better understanding and increased accessibility to scientific data. Undertaken by a multidisciplinary team of designers, engineers, technologists and end-user communities the project aims to investigate how a strategy of media transformation can be used to communicate and transfer knowledge between different stakeholders.
