A very thought-provoking talk that fits nicely with my current courses on problem-solving through comm tech and philosophy of tech in education. McCandless' discussion on visualization and on 'data as the new soil' reminded me a lot of Marshall McLuhan's notions of how the literate culture (the age of writing) is dominated by the eye (also reinforced by the coloured visualization of 9:20) and of his concepts of 'rootedness' and the need to examine the soil from which we are growing as human beings (i.e., how has technology changed the soil makeup? how does that affect our senses and ways of understanding?). I agree that I, too, find myself longing for large chunks of written text to be converted (compressed) into an image/diagram and am relieved when this happens. I think this longing goes hand-in-hand with the speediness of vision.

That's a brilliant design. It's so obvious that you have to wonder why it's not been in use for years. It would be great if there was a search engine which collated all the information and shown it as a graphic comparison.

This talk would have made my exclusive favorites list a number of different ways. His closing remarks alone bring a new kind of stunning realization about global warming and (more specifically) carbon emissions... The Iceland volcano put out less than we do every day with airline flights alone. Shocking.

@MrDemonshalo Fair play. I'm not entirely sure that it necessarily needs to be incorporated into every bit of data. If it were only used in news, I'm sure it would raise the impact given to certain fact and figures. Just seeing the difference in carbon emissions by the Icelandic volcano and the grounding of planes was quite the eye opener for me.

@ShallowBeThyGames I've actually tried to make a statistics website that uses a model like that instead of just relying on the X Y model where variables are static and non comparable. The problem was that there is too much data out there and sorting everything out in the right order takes a huge amount of time and effort, which is why I had to shut it down. Yet still I believe that we will need a software like that in the near future to be able to visualize data and come to new conclusions

I disagree about the military numbers. What's important in a military is how much damage it can do to other nations, not how much money is available to be spent, or how many people AREN'T in it. When you get down to it, a military only represents and acts on the orders of its government (if that) and is not accountable to the people at all.

I think data visualisation is the new wave that will transform the way we look at the world. Foursquare tells you where you hang out, Sniftag tells you who your dog is seeing and augmented reality adds another layer to reality. What comes after that could be scary: setting standards and automatic adjustments. Coming home and your intelligent house putting up a Michael Bolton song because you seem "stressed".

I don't know where he got his bandwidth figures of computer devices at 09:25, but they're all vastly off the mark. It shows: 1250 MB/s - same bandwidth as a computer network 125 MB/s - USB key 12.5 MB/s - hard disk A computer network is a rather vague description, but 1000 Mbit/s (125 MB/s) is the fastest consumer level network card speed. USB 2.0 is limited to 60MB/s. Most USB keys transfer at a max of ~30 MB/s. A hard disk transfers at up to ~150 MB/s. Where did he get these numbers?

Zornwil, he specifically said, "This is the landscape for violent video games". Not, "This is the landscape for media driven fear". Point? The media only discussed 1 subject, terrorism.

I agree, that context is very important, but who chooses what's important? I think images are easier to believe, but they contain also way better possibilities of suggesting things that aren't, - even more dangerous than really wrong data, because they might be correct, and still portray and transmit the wrong idea! Think about this for a second. I'd be careful with over rating, and being overly happy with visualised data!

Sure, but I'll let Stephen Few speak: " In McCandless’ case, the stories that they usually tell, if communicated in words alone, would require only a short sentence or two. They make a simple statement in a way that looks lighthearted and fun. As such, they invite viewers to accept the message superficially, not to explore or contemplate deeply. This is not the true realm of analytics."

This presentation is more about lies, damn lies, and statistics and how to visualize things to your liking. There is NOTHING wrong with that, I just think the true message here has less to do with comprehensive visualization of complex data than dumbing down data to dismiss what you don't like. Otherwise, each example he has given actually requires MANY visualization and just isn't so simple anymore.

so, it's all "let's make information look pretty enough that you put it up in a gallery, with better layout that make people pay attnetion". Surely what you need to be doing is giving the cold hard facts if you're presenting some very important imformation to some very important people (execs, business men etc), not spending ages making a pretty layout to put it all on? Seems a bit bizarre and not very important, and wouldn't really make much of a difference anway, but I'll go along with it.

I can visualize things quite neatly as well if I Ignore major things and create my own universe of information without a clear set of criteria other than as I like. The "fears" thing is a primary example, it's a bit of nonsense ot talk about "here's fears the media reports" and ignore 9/11 and terrorism and say "ah, that created a gap!" Even though that's not the point, it's the visualizations, problem is that how do you visualize the more complex reality he ignores?
