This assignment centers around data.

  • You are not required to do any programming for this assignment, but of course you can. Your assignment should include a blog post whether you create a javascript sketch or not. Here are some possibilities (choose one or more).
    • Write a response to Stefanie and Marcin's presentation. Some ideas:
      • What makes something a "data visualization"?
      • What qualities make up good "data visualization"?
      • To what extent can data visualization be objective? Should it be objective? What is the role of the artist or designer in telling a story about or with the data?
    • Find a data source that interests you. Does it have what you need? What format is it in? Do you know how to access it? What are some ideas you have for visualizing it? What story do you want to tell?
    • Try getting JSON into a p5.js sketch. You can use any of the examples as a model. Here is a list of possible data sources.
