Interdisciplinary Datavis Workshop
Scientists, Technologists and Designers discussed #datavis in a workshop organized by Greg McInerny (http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/people/a-gregmc/). It happened in person, not on Twitter, but still, some tweets were made!
- @moritz_stefaner also promotes "sketching in code" and working with real data ASAP. Good stuff. Uses ContextFree, NodeBox, Processing, etc
nice to hear @IXT talk (briefly!) about the production of the amazing Ville Vivante flow visualisation vimeo.com/37238326- now Ben Hennig is taking cartograms further by distorting a gridded world map rather than country area viewsoftheworld.net
- now, @driven_by_data is talking projections and Kartograph (vector map generation) kartograph.org #woosatelliteprojection
- also talking colour and what's wrong with rainbow palettes driven-by-data.net/about/chromajs…
- Looking forward to another great day of design, #datavis and science brainstorming. TEDx speaker Miriah Meyer at 09h30! tedxtalks.ted.com/video/TEDxWate…
- Last morning @MSFTResearchCam visualisation workshop, Miriah Meyer is talking visualising biological data in Processing
- 'curvemaps' are particularly interesting - combination of heatmaps and sparklines. check out the code & data cs.utah.edu/~miriah/pathli…
