Second Post

Looked at the book DATA FLOW which is all to do with communicating information in different ways. Looked ok, the text in the book was a bit serious and some of the (most of) the infographics were just so dense, I don't know how some of them were supposed to be followed. I think lots of them were just graphic created by a system or program like Processing and the final visual was the work, not very helpful for people looking for information though...

Took some examples from the book and from other sources like magazines like WIRED and newspapers etc etc, have begun a visual audit (I think) of the examples as a method of research. Will keep the auditing to the scrap books and try to keep notes and ideas into a hard back skecthbook, to keep it organised... And this blog maybe to keep track of developments along the way.
