OUR EDITORIAL TOUCH

The digital revolution ushered in a world flooded with
data. Likewise, the ever-increasing number of sources
brought about the concept of « infobesity ».
To better comprehend the world around us,
visualizing and understanding those data has become a dire necessity.
With ActuVisu, information visualization allows
data to be deciphered and put into perspective.
It is acknowledged that complex information is better
understood when visualized. Likewise, the ability to
interact with the news source greatly stimulates the
memorization process.
These are the reasons why we are lauching ActuVisu.fr
