The Aalto infodesign showcases are pretty neat (Full disclosure: I advised some of the creators) #infodesign

One year ago today, my book Building Science Graphics started shipping around the world. 🥂  https://www.buildingsciencegraphics.com

Last week @jona Pomerance presented the interactive and narrated #BetterCatastrophe flowchart at #infoplus2023 in Edinburgh. For this occasion we also released Interactive Flowchart as a free reusable template with detailed explanations of its structure, a visual step-by-step tutorial, and 12 student examples covering a range of well-known personal dilemmas.

Find everything compiled here:

what i also really liked about #infoplus2023 was that many presenters shared various materials making it easy to reuse these for teaching, research and practice.

here are some freely available tutorials, toolkits and templates:

Hey! 👋 We're Fathom. We build platforms and products for understanding data.

Some of our projects have included a Ron Carter discography explorer (https://www.roncarteruniverse.com/), Mayo Clinic healthcare information tools, an archive of Krista Tippett's On Being Project (https://discover.fathom.info/), a data platform for the Gates Foundation, and a research-driven educational platform for understanding the Chinese political system (http://china.fathom.info/).

We also love nerding out about typography, fiber and textile arts, paper, language, and the history of computation, to name a few interests shared between ourselves.

In the past three years, we've been hard at work developing dozens of tools for pandemic prevention, in collaboration with the Sabeti Lab at the Broad Institute. Stay tuned for more project details; we can't wait to share everything we're working on with you.

@troos
I’m increasingly convinced that the graphic I photographed is an older set of the same symbols by E. Christopher Klumb Associates. Perhaps they tried selling them separately before developing them for NYC Health?

Here’s some fairly clear cases, in addition to the babies. The surgeon with mask and the one with head lamp were made more uniform, the mother and child is visually better balanced.

Self-promotion:
If you happen to know of projects suitable for our information design agency, then we would actually have time to take on something new.

We do stuff from one-off charts and maps to interactive online dataviz. We can also create high-quality print publications, including design, illustration and layout.

Marie Neurath was born yesterday in 1898. Reading her book ”The transformer” was an, ahem, transformative experience for me as an information designer.

In my grandfather's estate I found an envelope with several hotel suitcase stickers from the (ca.) 1930s. Several amazing designs, but this one really takes the cake. Apparently both the "Atlantico" and the ristorante "Massimo D'Azeglio" are still in business today.

Cool exercise in data visualisation that had me (dare I say) excited about thinking about tax for the 5min or so it took me to read it. Which is a lot longer than I'm normally excited about tax.

The next iteration of the Information+ conference will be held in Edinburgh this November and the @InfoPlusConf organizers have just refreshed the website featuring a revolving logo accompanied by swarming particles and calls for presentations, workshops, and exhibits:

It was a treat to chat with Jonathan Schwabish for PolicyViz podcast. We talked about everything from what makes science graphics weird, to designing academic posters—and even books—with the mindset that those objects are simply very large graphics.

Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of chatting about science graphics with @Allitorban for her podcast Data Viz Today. Check out episode 85, in which we discuss using welcoming gestures, collaborating with others, the power of arrows, and more. #scicomm #dataviz #infodesign #informationdesign https://dataviztoday.com/shownotes/85

We updated our website with some new projects. Do you have data that needs visualizing or workshops that need workshopping?
Hit us up!

I’m excited to see that dates have been announced for the Information+ conference. (Nov 22-24, in Edinburgh.) #infodesign #dataviz https://informationplusconference.com/2023/

I wrote a tip sheet for The Open Notebook on designing science graphics:

An #introduction, or reconnection for those who used to follow me at that Bird thing: I’m a professional engineer and designer with a keen interest in #DesignLeadership, #DesignOps, #UX, #InfoDesign, #DataViz, and #Typography. I currently work as the Head of UX at a major financial software company, where I lead the UX research, product design, design operations, technical writing, and localization teams. Before moving to the tech sector, I worked in management consulting, and, prior to that, I was a mechanical and industrial engineer working in aerospace and defence. When I’m not at my day job, I teach design at OCAD, where I’ve been a faculty member for over a decade. I’ve lived in Toronto for most of my adult life but given that my employer is now permanently remote I recently moved to the small town of Stratford, where my partner @kteahen and I have a house which is about to undergo a major renovation. 🤞

My colleague Amanda Montañez curated this neat highlights collection of 2022 Scientific American graphics. #SciComm #InfoDesign #DataViz https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-most-compelling-science-graphics-of-2022/

@ChristiansenJen wow! this is not just a really useful list of resources for anyone in #DataVis #InfoDesign #SciComm, but also a wonderful testimonial for your book. looking forward to hold in my hands.

Hi fellow #dataviz and #infodesign Donnies!

Last summer, I visited the Infographics Conference. One of the speakers was PBL NL Environmental Assessment Agency.

Their great visualisation team published a 25yr-anniversary booklet with their examples, work methods and lessons learned.

'Visualising Knowledge. Lessons from 25 years of policy-related data visualisation'

You can download the English PDF for free via

#infodesign Do you think that on a map or diagram, the Legend needs to be labelled? Do we need to tell the reader: THIS IS THE LEGEND ?
or is it obvious, what it is?

No plans yet for Saturday night? We’ve got you covered: How about binging on the latest in #infodesign and #datavis!

🍿📊▶️ We invite you to watch all the paper presentations and lightning talks before joining our live conference #infoplus2021 next week:
