Working with Data in Protovis on Datavisualization Protovis is an open-source Javascript visualization library by the Stanford Visualization Group and has become one of the preferred tools in our arsenal. If you want to get started with the popular toolkit too, Jerome Cukier has a comprehensive tutorial about how to work with data in Protovis. The tutorial is split in five parts covering using (1, 2), sorting (3) and reshaping (4) arrays as well as how to structure data to work with complex structures like treemaps or force-directed layouts (5). Sergio Albiac: intuición experimental. 12 de agosto de 2011 | Sergio Albiac es un artista visual de Barcelona que mezcla técnicas tradicionales con programas de ordenador que el mismo escribe para generar imágenes, explorando las contradicciones de la belleza, las emociones el absurdo y la ilusión de control, como en este retrato “pintado” con recuerdos y significados íntimos: Sergio Albiac traduce sus ideas en líneas de código que se convierten en creaciones excepcionales, recreando tensiones y reflexiones como lo podemos ver en “Content is Queen” un retrato de la Reina de Inglaterra compuesto de fracciones de YouTube en el que el artista invita a una reflexión sobre la naturaleza del poder, la democracia y la banalidad.
"What if we could listen to our cities?" SoundAffects is a project by @parsonsamt @tellart and mono #maxmsp #sound #html5 #arduino On Fifth Avenue, a listening wall has jacks built in, so passersby can plug in earphones and listen to street activity translated into music. Sensors built into the wall detect movement, proximity, temperature, weather, cell phone activity, noise, color and light. Online and at night, a data visualizer translates the street activity and plays along with the music. The music, and the corresponding visuals and video, are available in near real-time through the browser or on your phone. The composition is navigable using the timeline, which is marked with the “experiments” scheduled throughout the week. What would we learn if we changed the way we looked at our cities?

NOOG Qu'est-ce que Traque Traces? Traque traces est une fiction. Mais c'est votre vie (ou presque) Cette fiction est née d'un pari un peu fou : refaire une ville fictive sous la vraie ville. Faire vivre et évoluer tout un peuple, écrit à partir des données qui nous écrivent, nous aussi, êtres de chair. Car chaque jour nous sommes, nous, êtres de chair, mis en données. Chaque jour nous produisons, en nous déplaçant, en communicant entre nous, un nombre incalculable de traces qui sont stockées, analysées, réutilisées. featured projects Quantified Other Five weeks of my father's Nike Fuel data Tatelets Generative bracelet based on artworks from Tate Modern Threads Market data as never seen before 40 Essential Tools and Resources to Visualize Data One of the most frequent questions I get is, "What software do you use to visualize data?" A lot of people are excited to play with their data, but don't know how to go about doing it or even start. Here are the tools I use or have used and resources that I own or found helpful for data visualization – starting with organizing the data, to graphs and charts, and lastly, animation and interaction.
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.
Voyagers and Voyeurs: Supporting Asynchronous Collaborative Information Visualization The sense.us collaborative visualization system. (a) An interactive visualization applet, with a graphical annotation for the currently selected comment. The visualization is a stacked time-series visualization of the U.S. labor force, broken down by gender. Small Design Firm NRC: Naturalist Tables, Raleigh, North Carolina, 2012 Small Design Firm developed two completely custom interactive tables for the Nature Research Center at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences. Visitors to the museum are invited to pick up actual specimens from the museum collection and place them on to the table surface. When the table reads the tagged specimen, video projection from above reveals activities and field guide information pertaining to the specimen. There are over a hundred available specimens, ranging from mounted insects and preserved amphibians, to mammal study skins and bird skulls.
