I made this base on today’s self grading email letter.

i think it is pretty good!!

since the people in fantasy baseball knew that i am always the last, today i had bring the good news to people, that is i am not the last anymore. The graph is present as the rank from the starting of the the league to present. and which i am very happy ^^

I use dot matrix to do this and i think it is pretty good that i can beat Andrew Kuo (impossible!!)

Anyway i think my graph is simple and good looking. People can see it with clear idea what i am talking about.

click the image to see the whole graph

since you see my recent post about Andrew Kuo’s graph. I decide to make one too

And the picture down there is my graph, I think it is pretty good but the thing i don’t like is the color, I don’t know what color should i choose to make the whole thing looks united.

This graph spend me 3 hr to do it, so take a look and give me some advice

today i am going to this thing

Just like the nam, it is an News reader with 3d graphics. The special part of this thing is that you can view to read, play & interact with news. It is very simple to use it. FIrst you choose the subject you want to see and later those news will be kinda like cards flying arround. You can see them by clicking them or also drag the tool bar. It is very good because it is not only fun but also very nice to have a information stuff to be present.

information aesthetics

i know we have seen this in class before but i still want to post it because It is the greatest  infodesign ever.

I like this chart is because the chart is very simple but very creative, Andrew Kuo use blocks to make the chart and represent each color while the song is going on.

This is a cleaver idea that no one ever seen before (at least for me) Also to make this chart, you don’t need alot of time. So i think it is very good.

click the picture to zoom in and see 

since you know who is Andrew Kuo is NYT. You will know that his job is to make chart of musics. I think he is a great designer because he does alot of crazy chart like this

However, today i am going to bring this chart that is call A chart-Based Review of Andrew Kuo’s Recent New York Times Chart-Based Review

This is the chart down here

 Greatest shave of all time

Finally after days and says research, i had found a great infomation design example of all human history. It is call the great shave of 2008. I think that it is the greatest infomation design sample because it shows a guy which take a picture before he shave. The thing that i am really impress is that he also take a 180 degree view before he shave. Later on he make it as an animation which every time change a little bit and take a photo of each so it looks like the hair is growing shorter. I think it is a good information design because we can see how the differences before and after he shave and also there is a feature after he finish shaving. It is the grow , it is just to show it grows back again.

PS. it is someone who we know (ben?)

this is the video which talks abou twar.

of course, this music video is a antiwar video, but it is also a very good information design example. Because in the film it use the real people combine to the animate character. which the singer is just like saying a story and the charecter is acting for the story. Also this video also use fonts in the video such as ” i want love” and other things. i think it is a good information design video which had a strong message of the antiwar.
