  1. Happy birthday to founder of modern nursing, social reformer, statistician, data visualization innovator and writer Florence Nightingale (1820 – 1910)!⁠
    Nightingale earned the nickname “The Lady with the Lamp” during the Crimean War, from a phrase used by The Times, describing her as a “ministering angel” making her solitary rounds of the hospital at night with “a little lamp in her hand”. 🧵1/

  6. This data story by #Tagesspiegel just won a European Digital Publishing Award in data journalism:

    In 2024, @lehmann and I co-taught Mapping Cities – Making Cities to students of #InterfaceDesign and #UrbanFutures and one team asked: is access to a pool a matter of privilege? This question sparked an in-depth investigation that led to a surprising finding…

  7. seen on fast trains to and from Paris lately: The SNCF drastically undersells the environmental advantage of taking the train. the 3g-to-260g difference is actually much more drastic and thus should also look like it - here 87x difference looks only like 4x. I don’t want to go all Tufte on French rail, but excusez-moi: the illustrations and colors can stay, but accurate representation matters.

    PS: the trains were punctual!!

  8. TIL It's not that hard to replicate news graphics using #datavis / #d3js.
    Also I learned that the Western hemisphere seems to include Ireland, UK and a large portion of north-western Africa oO

  9. Ok, so that guy complained tonight (?) about the state of things when he came back into office?

    Um...this is one of many things he left behind from his last time in office.

    In January of 2021, I created this piece to help myself process what was happening. I started when there were only 400,000 American deaths from Covid. I updated it when we hit 500k. And I just couldn't update it again.

  10. 🌌 “Our Energy Nexus” is featured in #InfoPlus2025!
    This interactive installation by Chloe Prock & friends reimagines energy as a collective force, turning pollution data into shared hope + action.

  11. Das kleine Nebenprojekt zum Format "Mit offenen Karten" von #arte kommt gut voran.

    Grobe Idee: Das Format mal anders zu navigieren, als man es in Mediatheken sonst so gewohnt ist. Alle Episoden auf einer Karte visualisieren und durch Verbindungen der Locations zu versuchen den Geo-Kontext des jeweiligen Videos abzubilden.

  12. @arjen What's sad is that they think they'll keep their place in the #Big10 and get back into the #AAU with this cut. "We have a #biostats department at UNMC" -- well, yeah, but biostatisticians don't design ag field experiments, or specialize in data visualization (our department has 2 #datavis researchers), or teach consulting, and they probably don't have extra time to support a #datascience program.

    It's very short sighted.

  13. Come work with me to define the future of product design education in Aotearoa!

    We’re looking for an early career or mid career researcher with a strong background in teaching and design practice and experience delivering apps with modern web platform or game engine technology. We’d also love to hear from researchers with deep expertise in type design and font engineering; information architecture and data visualisation; or similar niches adjacent to product design who might thrive in our unique interdisciplinary context.

  14. I was frustrated with record-breaking global CO2 emissions, so I created a bunch of charts and wrote about it. Discovered the fascinating simplicity of the Kaya identity and the only real solution it points to: shrinking our economies! Hope I didn't mess up the data too much 🤞😅

  15. CW: hospital & ICU capacity trend USpol

    Capacity level up a point as occupancy climbs slightly and hospitals surveyed drops two points.

    We're in transition period, ramping into northern hemisphere influenza season, as RSV spreads & #Cerebrus slaver-broth #Typhon se gang comes to shaggy boil across U.S.
