Data....Being Visualised....

Today I checked out various examples of Data Visualizations. One of the options we have for Project B is to build a data visualization, although I have no intention of going down that route it was still interesting to check out the different examples. The one I spent the most time on was a visualization of the Olympic Medal count sorted by country and year. The data was presented on the form of the world map. The more medals a country won in that particular games the bigger it will be on the world map. It also gives a great representation of when certain countries became sporting superpowers and when others dropped off.

I think I've decided to do a youtube video for Project B. I've been playing around with a camera the last few days and have just got my feet wet cutting stuff together with Final Cut. Hopefully I can put together something that's at least somewhat creative, probably something that doesn't just crudely simulate sexual acts - that may be a first for me.
