Visualization

http://mbostock.github.com/d3/ d3.js D3 is not a traditional visualization framework. Rather than provide a monolithic system with all the features anyone may ever need, D3 solves only the crux of the problem: efficient manipulation of documents based on data. This gives D3 extraordinary flexibility, exposing the full capabilities of underlying technologies such as CSS3 , HTML5 and SVG . It avoids learning a new intermediate proprietary representation. With minimal overhead, D3 is extremely fast, supporting large datasets and dynamic behaviors for interaction and animation. And, for those common needs, D3’s functional style allows code reuse through a diverse collection of optional modules.

Data and Visualization: Predictions for 2011 « DataMarket blog DataMarket is building an active marketplace for statistics and structured data . We believe in a “visual data exploration” approach, meaning that users’ first experience with any data is a visualization that should provide a quick overview of what the data is all about, then allowing users to dig deeper to see the raw numbers, download the data in various formats, embed it in other web content or connect to the data live using our API. This vision, and our goals for the coming year – including our launch of an international data offering – frame the topics that I’ve been thinking about. http://blog.datamarket.com/2010/12/30/data-and-visualization-predictions-for-2011/

http://infosthetics.com/archives/2010/10/lev_manovich_media_visualization.html New media theorist Lev Manovich just released a new text, titled What is Visualization? [manovich.net]. One might first wonder if such a question is not too... obvious, but in the light of the contentious discussion about the tension between artistic and scientific representations of data, and whether data art should be called visualization at all, it is always worth covering the basics. The text is quite substantial, so you might want to wait for some quiet time to dive into it. The main arguments in the text focus around distinguishing information visualization, scientific visualization and information design. Research: Lev Manovich Coins the Term 'Media Visualization' - information aesthetics

Emerging Information Architectures « Srinivas Reddy’s Weblog The book provides examples of elegant data solutions from different domains (including space, music, medical research, web apps, government data,..). A common pattern across domains is the need for smart handling of large data sets in the different stages of information processing (be it for data collection, storage, processing, visualization or collaboration around data). While ‘beauty’ (be it in data, code, art, person..) lies in the eye of the beholder, there can be some common metrics for it. http://srinivasreddy.wordpress.com/2010/08/21/emerging-information-architectures/

“ Decode is about demystifying the black art or magic of digital while showing that this work can be poetic, emotional and poignant,” show co-curator Shane R.J. Walter told Wired.com in an e-mail interview. Walter, creative director for the OneDotZero digital arts site, said the exhibition pieces “highlight issues in our everyday lives such as the overabundance of information and how we deal with this through data visualization.” The Decode artists, he writes, “use code as a material to work with just as sculptors work with clay.” In addition to the curated works, the exhibition hosts the Recode project , which invites programmers to repurpose custom software featured in U.K. designer Karsten Schmidt’s animated video (embedded above) as a foundation for their own variations. Dave Price, for example, reconfigured the original programming language to make Eye Like Recode (embedded below). http://www.wired.com/underwire/2010/01/decode-exhibition-points-way-to-data-based-future-art/ Decode Exhibition Points Way to Data-Driven Art | Underwire | Wi

http://www.sciplore.org/software/sciplore_mindmapping/ MindMapping: Mind Maps, PDF Management and Reference Management Adding Reference Keys (BibTeX) Automatically Most reference managers (e.g. JabRef, BibDesk, Referencer, ...) allow assigning a file (usually PDF) to entries in the bibliographic database. If a file that is linked in the reference database is linked by a node in the mind map, SciPlore MindMapping automatically extracts the corresponding reference key from reference database and adds it to the mind map node. Currently, this feature only works with reference databases in BibTeX format. This feature allows assigning a reference key to a mind map’s node.
