By Ward Shelley. One of the winning entries for the 7th iteration of the Mapping Science exhibit, devoted to science maps that serve as visual interfaces to digital libraries. The original is hand drawn and painted on Mylar.
As per Dan’s request, I’ve made some display pics of the ProE CAD model I made of an E 61 assembly.

I’ll also try and do some close ups of the water path around the gicleur as well.
This is a visualization of an HTTP image request, slowed down 40 times. You can clearly see the handshake, slow-start ramp-up and full bandwidth phases.
Created using Packet Flight.

Looking at the way we store information can be a portal into looking at how we perceive ourselves. From the processes we use to infuse materials with data, to the way we archive information, we distinctly value some information more than others. My work grapples with these information systems through an investigation of their physical and visual language. Be it a dot and dash of Morse code or the notched holes inside a cassette tape there is a language that has a direct lineage to our own self-image.
Victorian Infographics on BibliOdyssey. More rivers and mountains.
More Dada Visualization, this time from Chad Hagen:
The science of infographics is an interesting beast. Infographics’ level of success is always based on how much and how well they communicate their data—the classic form follows function. In this series, I reversed these roles—form is king and dictates what the infographic communicates. Welcome to the world of fictional visual information.
Mario Klingemann’s work in the recent Data Art show:
All these pieces are a pun on the new craze for data visualization. The goals of data visualization as I understand them are to make complicated issues more understandable, to make obscured connections visible and to reveal hidden patterns in the data. After all these tasks have been solved ideally the result should be aesthetically pleasing as well.
Gestalten has just released what looks to be a fascinating new book entitled Data Flow: Visualising Information in Graphic Design. It looks to be aimed squarely at the Modcult demographic. It surveys the current landscape of data driven visualizations with an eye towards creative aesthetics.
Gestalten, send our review copy via the link at the bottom of the page…
I hate to break it to you, dude, but you can’t ship packages via email.
From the UC Berkeley Visualization Lab comes a system which automates the generation of interactive 3D exploded view diagrams. For examples see this (large) video. Now someone just needs to hook up some stylized non-photorealistic rendering…
Everymoment Now: context, scope, and graphs to the moments (words?) shaping our world.
Daytum, from lifechart maker Nicholas Felton. I could see this becoming quite popular– as we all know, people love graphs.
Reminds me a bit of the old Moodstats application.
and kv just linked mycrocosm from subtraction.
Microsoft really should have beaten these guys to the market.
Of course, this is the Windows version of Daytum.
“my life bits”? they really need to work on that product name.
Screencast of the Daytum here.
