A collection of the main tweets I posted about the @visualized conference, November 8th-9th, TImes Center, New York
- Finally online, I know everyone has been desperate to hear from me... Anyway, this is where I'm broadcasting from lockerz.com/s/259856933
- . @aBirt on stage showing a refreshing and smart view of systems thinking in visualising/storytelling about global issues #visualized
- . @aBirt showing why I stress influence of OR/'operational research' in dataviz, to see subject > data > info > behaviour/action #visualized
- . @migurski talking about how some of the most relevant and impactive data (or proxy data) is shy and hidden BUT in full view #visualized
- . @migurski "Exposing whats hidden is about bringing it to a new audience", showing it to people who can make connections to it #visualized
- . @wiederkehr of @datavis and @IXT talking about process - great topic - especially how you can learn from bad projects #visualized
- . @wiederkehr stressing importance of exploring data using visual literacy to learn and discover potential insights. Big issue, nice talk BW
RT @tkb: “The total number of people ever killed vs the total number of people who’ve ever lived” - Peter Crnokrak #visualized http://pic.twitter.com/S52f7Zp3- . @rachelbinx frames a great topic referring to how a return visit to anywhere on web is essentially an endorsement of love for that 'thing'
- That is interesting to apply to data viz, as @rachelbinx then asks which ones she returns to. How many of the pieces we see do we return to?
- Really nice talk from @rachelbinx - great way to rationalise the importance of creative and affective elements to data viz #visualized
- RT @datatelling: What the subway sounds like, played in the most playful possible way, by @alexanderchen mta.me #visualized

- . @krees doing a great job supplementing those themes I outlined earlier: emotional/affective connection to data - make it real #visualized
- @JanWillemTulp's ghost countries makes an appearance @visualized! courtesy of @jakeporway lockerz.com/s/259909139
- When the final slot needs filling, on a long day of talks, running over time, @jakeporway's overt enthusiasm is just ideal #visualized
- Some phenomenal people on show @visualized. If it were a football team, they would be the Messis, Xavis etc. Makes me feel like Phil Neville
- Learnt 2 things yesterday: 1) loads of good data visualisation stuff 2) Americans (small sample) don't know term 'whip-round' #visualized
- Resuming my self-appointed role as chief theme observer: 'making the invisible visible' - whether it be data, tools or devices #visualized
- Fascinating showcase of work by @CedricKiefer of @onformative, project works through music > data > dance > generative sculpture #visualized
