“Infographic” (by Phil Gyford, via buzz)

Wonderful. Now, regarding this morning’s much-linked iPad-unboxing “infographic”, please look closely at one of its pretty-but-useless charts.

I’m not a dataviz expert; all I’ve done is read two of Edward Tufte’s marvelous books. This was enough to make me appreciate the art and science that goes into creating a good infographic. It’s a craft with its own language, a real field of expertise; not just some veneer of aesthetic sensibility.

Landscapes of Wool, Cotton, and Sugar.

Web Urbanist has a story on the works of Matthew Albanese. His photos represent stunning scenes of violent storms and the beauty of earth, but they are all created in his studio using string, cotton, wool, and sugar. To see the before and after photos of these works is mind blowing.

At the risk of flogging a dead horse, I do like the flair shown here by Laz Marquez in his reimagining of Hitchcock film artwork, particularly The Birds. (via Alex Seder)
