Data Underload is a good play on words. Data Visualization’s main purpose (well, one of them) is to make it easier to digest data. I like.

Any chance I can collaborate on a visualization or two? Big fan and I’ve got some illustrator/photoshop skills. BTW, do you know of a good resource for generating area maps, such as what you did for #1 above.

@Moses – yes! i amused one person. that is all i need. this is going to be a weekly thing here… sort of a data comic, called “data underload,” this being #1. i’m going to be visualizing things that really have no need to be visualized.

i’ll explain myself better in an upcoming post.

This is both baffling and charming. Nathan, did somebody slip something in your drink? ;)

if you like this, check out djearworm.com and listen to “United State of Pop” for various years that he did it.

they are mashups where he picks one tune and mixes in the top charting tunes for the year.
