Dear all,
This might be somewhat peripheral, or on a different note.
But I'm sure some people will find this useful and related.
My MFA dissertation was on the subject of information visualization.
Unfortunately, the archaic university system over here requires dissertations in our mother tongue, so that's not really useful for most people in this list.
I have a fair bibliography on this subject.
Here's a short selection.
I found these books very interesting:
============================
Peter van Sommers, 2009, Drawing and Cognition: Descriptive and Experimental Studies of Graphic Production Processes
Juan Martínez Moro,
La Ilustración Como Categoría. Una Teoría Unificada Sobre Arte y Conocimiento
(in spanish)
