Dear Data Wrap Up:  Each week that I created a Dear Data postcard I purposely tried to do different time gaps for the data collection so I could see how much the collection period affected the data set.  For the first one it was over a period of 3 days, two of the days IContinue reading “Data Visualization Reflection”

For my final Dear Data I chose to track an entire days worth of my fake responses. Through out my life my friends and family have always called me out for using a very fake voice when I’m talking to people I don’t know and professionals who are usually older than me. So I choseContinue reading “Dear Data #3”

This week’s brainstorm was one of the hardest projects I’ve ever had to think about. It took me an extremely long time to figure out 1 topic let alone 2 different ones that I think I could research well enough to make a comprehensive visual data narration.  After reading Visual and Statistical Thinking, I beganContinue reading “Narrative Data: Storytelling and Aesthetics”

This is a highly trusted government website and the case studyContinue reading “Data Literacy: Cleaning & Organizing”

I’ve been surprised again as to A.) how important data visualization is and that’s not just making a pretty graph and B.) how often I subconsciously looking at something data based that was meticulously designed by someone.Continue reading “The 4 Types of Information Visuals”

After monitoring my cursing for three days at home and at my 2 different jobs, these were my results. Clearly I need to work on how much I curse at one of my jobs and it also seems that my favorite word is F**k and I curse the most with my fellow co-workers.

After reading the articles I found out so much about the history of data visualization. I had no idea before this that the art of taking a large amount of data and forming into something easily readable and visual has such an expansive timeline. Of course just like all things in this society technology beganContinue reading “The History of Data Visualization”
