L’Ukraine, un bien beau pays qui est dans l’actualité en ce moment pour de bien tristes raisons… Malgré les vaillants efforts de l’opposition en Ukraine, le Parlement ukrainien a adopté une loi brutale qui dirige le pays en plein dans la dictature. Sont interdits en vertu de la nouvelle loi (sous peine d’emprisonnement) de conduire des voitures dans des colonnes qui dépassent cinq véhicules longs, de mettre en place un système sonore (émission ou réception) non déclaré, les « perturbations de masse » sont passibles de 10 à 15 ans d’emprisonnement, des informations sont collectés sur la police ou les juges, j’en passe… (l’image en grand format) Bref, comme souvent je vous invite à rester vigilant autant que possible sur vos droits, vos libertés et à rester informés tout en informant… et à militez avec vos propres moyens, si vous le pouvez!

Vis4.net. Project: Redesign the Food Label - Food. We all read food labels, but we're not always sure what they mean or how to use them. We want to change that. So does Michelle Obama. Last year, she said, "We need clear, consistent, front-of-the-package, labels that give people the information they’ve been asking for, in a format they understand. " Now, GOOD and the University of California Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism's News21 project are asking designers, nutritionists, and food policy experts to redesign the food label, and we want your help. the OBJECTIVE Inspire better food and nutrition literacy with clear, simple, easy-to-understand labels. the ASSIGNMENT Redesign the food label.
Incorporate the existing nutrition facts and calorie counts. The REQUIREMENTS Please submit your design here—as a JPG image, 450 pixels wide, and less than 1 MB in size. The winner will be announced on July 15 and featured on both our homepage and News21's website. Tell all your friends and send us your design here! O’Reilly Radar article: “Why animated geospatial data works” Visualising Data » Training. Exponential advances in technology have provided us with ubiquitous means for creating, recording and mobilising incredible amounts of data. Where once data was scarce, now it is captured in abundance. Our attitudes as consumers have also evolved. We demand transparency and openness and yearn for insight and understanding through compelling visuals. Whilst we have access to fantastic tools and widespread capabilities for data handling and analysis, the techniques required to most effectively display and communicate data are somewhat neglected.
In a cluttered and competitive world, a design approach based on instinct or personal taste is no longer sufficient to cope with, let alone exploit, the fantastic opportunities our data repositories present us with. This is where data visualisation comes in. Data visualisation is both an art and a science. The objective of these training courses is to provide you with a comprehensive introduction to contemporary data visualisation design. Part 8: The essential collection of visualisation resources. This is part of a series of posts to share with readers a useful collection of some of the most important, effective and practical data visualisation resources. This post presents the first part of a collection of books that have had most influence on my knowledge about data visualisation and its many closely-related subject areas.
The selection presented includes only the books I own or I have read from a library – I have decided to exclude any books I’ve not yet read, even if they might be on other reading lists. However, I will add emerging texts to the collection as and when I get to them. This collection should be read alongside part one and part three.
The categories used to organise and group the books simply represents an instinctive and personal view for how they have proven valuable to me – I appreciate they could be/will be argued, debated and refined but it will never be perfect! The books in each section are typically sequenced alphabetically. Communication Design. Part 1: The essential collection of visualisation resources. This is the first part of a multi-part series designed to share with readers an inspiring collection of the most important, effective, useful and practical data visualisation resources. The series will cover visualisation tools, resources for sourcing and handling data, online learning tutorials, visualisation blogs, visualisation books and academic papers.
Your feedback is most welcome to help capture any additions or revisions so that this collection can live up to its claim as the essential list of resources. This first part presents the data visualisation tools associated with conducting analysis, creating effective graphs and implementing business intelligence operations. Please note, I may not have personally used all tools presented but have seen sufficient evidence of their value from other sources.

Wisdom of small crowds, part 3: another worker visualization | The CrowdFlower Blog. This is a follow-up to the previous post on individual workloads and rates.
Here are the submission times and durations for every worker on the same graph. Each worker is one horizontal line. An assignment is started at a dot, and its duration is for the line segment extending to the right. The particular data set isn't the same as in the previous post, but was for a similar task and exhibits a similar structure. This view makes the parallelism of AMT apparent. .

The Art Of Reproduction by fernanda and martin The web can seem like the perfect museum, holding all the world’s art. Type “Danae Klimt” into your favorite search engine, and you conjure up a high-resolution image of Gustav Klimt’s Danaë: tan limbs, a shower of gold, red hair.
Or did you find pink limbs? Curious just how far reproductions stray from each other, we began an investigation. The discontinuities of color, texture and frame tell the story of the inaccuracies in reproduction, forming a tapestry of beautiful half-truths. For some works, we also created compositions comparing the same detail across many copies. Go to our gallery to see all the compositions. That was fast! It seems like just yesterday (or two blog posts ago) that we announced the beginning of Flowing Media. But today we are bidding the company adieu. It’s been a wonderful, though short, ride at Flowing Media.

To produce a collective portrait of desire, we polled hundreds of people’s opinions about parts of the body. To do so, we teamed up with Dolores Labs to crowdsource the data gathering step through Amazon’s Mechanical Turk site—a marketplace where paid workers perform simple tasks. This means that we set up an open call to anyone on the Mechanical Turk site who was interested in answering questions about desire and the human body. We developed the rating interface below, which prompted users to rank how exciting several points of the body were to the touch. Taking into account the respondent's gender and sexual preferences, we told people to imagine they were caressing, or being caressed by a lover.
Overall, we asked questions for 707 different points on male and female bodies. Results After a few days, a total of 281 people entered 33,871 ratings of different points of the body.

Adapt. Treasure hunting for the whole family - Chatham Daily News - Ontario, CA. Ever heard of Geocaching? Neither did I until Friday. Geocaching is a real-world outdoor treasure-hunting game. The idea is to use a GPS-enabled smartphone to track down your booty. And there's booty all over Chatham, Chatham-Kent, Ontario, and around the world. Then again, the booty won't likely knock your socks off. But kids like it. I took Friday off to spend the P.A. day with my daughter and her cousin. After three days of rain, it was nice to get outdoors Friday, even under overcast skies, and with that cool wind out of the northwest. Uncle Steven pulled out his iPhone and found the nearest stash - about half a mile to the south. Off we went, on foot through residential subdivisions. After snaking through The Maples, we closed in on the paths beside the drain (I hate calling creeks such things as "drains"). Despite the fact our first foray ended in failure, our spirits remained undaunted.
