Cascade on Wheels
Cascade on Wheels is a visualization project that intends to express the quantity of cars we live with in big cities nowadays. The data set we worked on is the daily average of cars passing by streets, over a year. In this case, a section of the Madrid city center, during 2006. We made two different visualizations of the same data set. Read the interview at we make money not art. The pieces Walls Map Launch the Walls Map video: fullsize quicktime or shrinked flash (on vimeo). Traffic Mixer Launch the Traffic Mixer video: fullsize quicktime or shrinked flash (on vimeo). A few things worth noting Not all streets in the section are included in the data set, but in the most part the ones with the highest traffic are. On the Walls Map, busses and trucks categories are represented with 3 times the size of the other categories. Credits People involved Thanks to the Medialab Prado team for the help, organization, kindness, and the endless coffee and beer. Software used Data set Contact

Quartz Composer Programming Guide: Introduction to Quartz Composer Programming Guide
Important: This document may not represent best practices for current development. Links to downloads and other resources may no longer be valid. The Quartz Composer framework defines classes and protocols that work with compositions built using the Quartz Composer development tool. This book describes how to use the QCView and QCRenderer classes, and how to include compositions in webpages and widgets. You should read this document if you are a developer who wants to load, play, and control compositions programmatically from a Cocoa application. Organization of This Document This document is organized as follows: See Also These resources are essential for anyone wanting to program using the Quartz Composer framework: Quartz Composer Reference Collection provides documentation for the Objective-C programming interface for Quartz Composer.
