Photo of a Man on Sunset Drive: 1914, 2008
by: Richard Blanco
And so it began: the earth torn, split open
by a dirt road cutting through palmettos
and wild tamarind trees defending the land
against the sun. Beside the road, a shack
leaning into the wind, on the wooden porch,
crates of avocados and limes, white chickens
pecking at the floor boards, and a man
under the shadow of his straw hat, staring
into the camera in 1914. He doesn't know
within a lifetime the unclaimed land behind
him will be cleared of scrub and sawgrass,
the soil will be turned, made to give back
what the farmers wish, their lonely houses
will stand acres apart from one another,
jailed behind the boughs of their orchards.
He'll never buy sugar at the general store,
mail love letters at the post office, or take
a train at the depot of the town that will rise
out of hundred-million years of coral rock
on promises of paradise. He'll never ride
a Model-T puttering down the dirt road
that will be paved over, stretch farther and
farther west into the horizon, reaching for
the setting sun after which it will be named.
He can't even begin to imagine the shadows
of buildings rising taller than the palm trees,
the street lights glowing like counterfeit stars
dotting the sky above the road, the thousands
who will take the road everyday, who'll also
call this place home less than a hundred years
after the photograph of him hanging today
in City Hall as testament. He'll never meet
me, the engineer hired to transform the road
again, bring back tree shadows and birdsongs,
build another promise of another paradise
meant to last another forever. He'll never see
me, the poet standing before him, trying
to read his mind across time, wondering if
he was thinking what I'm today, both of us
looking down the road that will stretch on
for years after I too disappear into a photo.

Political data visualization poster showcasing the drastic differences in voter turnout between presidential and midterm elections.
Representing hours of daylight (inner loop) out of 24 hours (outer loop) on the first day of every month in Umeå, Sweden. Like a clock, top loop is 12 (December). More details: www.charlenelam.com/?p=90
This is a scatter plot of vehicle schedule deviation plotted against time of day. Time of day is plotted on the horizontal axis with gray tick marks every hour. The slightly bolder gray line is noon. Schedule deviation is plotted on the Y axis, with three ticks, from top to bottom: five minutes late, on time, and five minutes early. There's a dense area right after noon - this doesn't represent any feature of King County Metro's schedules - it's just a region where I got two day's worth of readings. On average vehicles are about a minute late. They're rarely more than two minutes early, but it's not terribly uncommon for a vehicle to be up to twenty minutes late.
I'm a bit upset with the result cause it looks too dull and similar with the previous work. I'll try something new next time and take a more interesting piece of architecture as a source.

Thank you. Thank you very much. (You get it, right? If not, try saying it out loud.)
I am really happy about this project 365. I know I seem to start all my intros that way, but it's true. I think I can complete it.
These are some peas from lunch. Aren't you hungry now?
P.S. This is my most tagged image yet!
The goal of this project was to visualize anger. Even though we usually connect this emotion with very intensevisuals, I decided to take a more subtle, poetic approach. After a month of thorough research,which included reading about the signs and phases of anger, as well as thereasons which cause it, I formed a clear idea of my direction.

GED-VIZ:
This morning I received a tweet from Josh Walker alerting me to this tool.
Apparently this tool had been available to the public for, oh, I dunno,
about two weeks! Josh sure caught it fast. He also has brilliant useful
tweets, so if you don't follow him already, you should! (You can find him
at @jshwlkr twitter.com/jshwlkr/ .)
GED-VIZ is just fascinating. You can see the great data visualization in
the image, but what that doesn't show is how it changes over time and
supports the process of making concepts and time factors more clear through
a kind of storytelling. The GED team (Global Economic Dynamics) was
working with a bunch of data that really didn't make clear sense without
that temporal context. They couldn't find a tool that did what they wanted,
so they ended up making it themselves! And now we have a
data-visualization-storytelling tool that is HTML5 (and thus will work on
mobile devices) and is also OPEN SOURCE!

In their words:
*"Our Global Economic Dynamics project exists to help make complex economic
dynamics transparent and understandable. The project examines the causes
and effects of economic trends, as well as the connections linking one
trend to another.
Within the GED Project we are working with latest tools and methods for
measuring, forecasting and representing global economic dynamics and we
continue to develop these instruments in cooperation with leading
scientists, research institutes and analysts.
GED Shorts are multimedia, interactive presentations of our studies,
simulations and forecasts. They are available for use and re-use by the
general public, including media representatives."*

How we built the data visualization tool GED VIZ (July 10, 2013)
If I were to make a 3D chart that mapped out the alphabetical distribution of my CD library, this is what it would look like.
This is a visualizer, created in Java (using the Processing environment), which plots all zip codes as little orange points, then plots a dataset as yellow "pins" on top. Links between the pins are represented by green curves.
Although the real version used Quickbooks company data plotted on the map, this demonstration version uses randomized data. Made in collaboration with Lydia Sidrak.
