data sketches: a year of exotic data visualizations
'Data sketches' was a year-long collaboration between Nadieh Bremer & Shirley Wu, both freelancing data visualization designers. Each month, they chose a topic and visualized it in an elaborate & geeky manner. But they also wrote about the creation process. In this talk, Nadieh will share her favorite lessons learned about data, sketching & coding. She will explain how some months became favourites, what mistakes were made, and how they were overcome. She'll highlight that many had humble, ugly duckling beginnings, but that through many (embarrassing) iterations they turned into unique and compelling results.
