ORGANIZING DATA

DATA FLOW >>

"Visual metaphors are a powerful aid to human thinking. From Sanskrit through hieroglyphics to modern alphabet, we have ciphers, objects, and illustrations to share meaning with other people, thus enabling collective and collaborative thought. As out experience of the world has become more complex and nuanced, the demands to our thinking aids have increased proportionally. Diagrams, data graphics, and visual confections have become the language we resort to in this abstract complex world. They help us understand, create, and completely experience reality." Introduction for the book DATA FLOW: Visualizing Information In Graphic Design by Gestalten.

"Micro/macro composition also oversees celebrated 1930 poster composed by the Soviet graphic artist Gustav Klutisis. The design and the political point correspond-as the poster shows and also writes out, from collaborative work many hands, one great plan will be fulfilled. At work here is a critical and effective principle of information design." (Simular Ideas we was discussing about signals processing.)

Envisioning Information By Edward R. Tufte

DATA DATA DATA

“As the art being made has dematerialized and the world around us is increasingly information based, using data as another medium for artistic exploration seems not only possible but culturally necessary. The same tools used by corporations and governments to track our interests, desires, locations, and personal information can and are being exploited by artists to criticize, explore, and find poetic moments within the stream of data. This panel explores current approaches being used by artists working with data but with an eye to the past and culture. Since the available data sources range widely from weather patterns to stock-market trends to GPS locations and possible output spans all types of new and traditional media, this panel does not hone in one a specific issue but works as a survey connecting conceptual and critical points within this practice.”
