Deadly but Beautiful

Question: When does an Earthquake become beautiful?

Answer: When someone turns the vast amount of Earthquake data available since 1898 into map.

Yet another example of Information being beautiful. Thanks go to John Nelson, manager of user experience and mapping at IDV Solution, a data visualisation company.

Changing Waters Info-Sculptures

You've heard of Infographics, now get ready for Info-Sculptures.

Nathalie Miebach creates amazingly informative sculptures fusing techniques from bascket weaving with the worlds formost sources of scientific data concerning a myriad of dynamic systems, particularly our weather.

I have just received an email from Nathalie about her most recent exhibit of a large scale installation of her work.

"Using data from NOAA and GOMOSS buoys within the Gulf of Maine, as well as weather stations along the coast, I am translating data that explores the seasonal variations of marine life."
