The Social in the Visual

Data Underload posts can be found on Nathan Yau’s Flowing Data blog, which is a must see. This design is one of his I believe. When not making his own engaging pieces, he certainly has an eye for others’ entertaining infographics. We’re very keen on these kinds of nonsense infographics just because of what they can tell us about engaging and entertaining while (mis)informing. Our raison d’etre is accessibility you may recall. The link, Data Underload , was sent to us courtesy of Andy Simionato of Thisisamagazine fame, whose acquaintance I am very pleased to have made recently. Keep ‘em coming, Andy. hopefully, we can coax Andy to work with us on some of our experiments.
Testing … testing … Are we back on air? The title of this post does two jobs. We’re also back after a long hiatus during which we’ve each been flat out on our own projects but have been underloading the data on Figures. Uriah and myself are determined to continue Figures and will shortly relaunch it in Uriah’s fab new livery. Hopefully, we’ll be joined by Scott Savage our colleague in Dunedin, NZ who shares our interests in this field. Anyway, we promise to start the posts back up and prompt you, dear reader, for your valued feedback.
