Information design is the practice of presenting information in a way that fosters efficient and effective understanding of it. The term has come to be used specifically for graphic design for displaying information effectively, rather than just attractively or for artistic expression. Information design is closely related to the field of data visualization and is often taught as part of graphic design courses.[1] Etymology[edit] The term 'information design' emerged as a multidisciplinary area of study in the 1970s.

Some graphic designers started to use the term, and it was consolidated with the publication of the Information Design Journal in 1979, and later with the setting up of the related Information Design Association (IDA) in 1991.[2] In 1982, Edward Tufte produced a book on information design called The Visual Display of Quantitative Information.

The term information graphics tends to be used by those primarily concerned with diagramming and display of quantitative information. SnakeOil? Scientific evidence for health supplements. A generative data-visualisation of all the scientific evidence for popular health supplements by David McCandless and Andy Perkins. I’m a bit of a health nut. Keeping fit. Streamlining my diet. I plan to live to the age of 150 in fact. Is Vitamin C worth taking or not? In an effort to give myself a quick reference guide, I dove into the scientific evidence and created a visualization for my book. Play with interactive version | See the still image This visualisation generates itself from this Google Doc.

This image is a “balloon race”. You might also see multiple bubbles for certain supps. We only considered large, human, randomized placebo-controlled trials in our data scrape – wherever possible. This piece was doggedly researched by myself, and researchers Pearl Doughty-White and Alexia Wdowski. You can see our key results in this spreadsheet. This is our first interactive piece here on Information Is Beautiful. See the visualisation | Check out the spreadsheet. 5 | Data Driven Architecture | Diverge. One of the largest resources we have today is data. We have information on almost every measurable subject. But what do we do with it? This project explores how data can directly influence architectural form. The results of this exploration into data driven architecture is that of an automated system that based on its location, users, and surrounding data can produce an efficient and performative building.

Not necessarily performative in purely the ecological sense but rather performative in all measured ways to satisfaction, circulation efficiency, types of program, The site: This project focuses on a site in downtown Chicago. The tower would serve as residences. This project aimed to find a direct connection between data and building and how the two can interact. Residential towers seem to grow anywhere and everywhere in an urban context. The second portion of the app is a visual layout of a typical unit (either corner or standard depending on which you prefer). The base: Floor Plans. 50 Great Examples of Data Visualization. Wrapping your brain around data online can be challenging, especially when dealing with huge volumes of information. And trying to find related content can also be difficult, depending on what data you’re looking for. But data visualizations can make all of that much easier, allowing you to see the concepts that you’re learning about in a more interesting, and often more useful manner.

Below are 50 of the best data visualizations and tools for creating your own visualizations out there, covering everything from Digg activity to network connectivity to what’s currently happening on Twitter. Music, Movies and Other Media Narratives 2.0 visualizes music. Different music tracks are segmented into single channels that are then shown in a fan-like structure. Liveplasma is a music and movie visualization app that aims to help you discover other musicians or movies you might enjoy. Tuneglue is another music visualization service.
