Creative Outlets
Data Visualization
For nine days I recorded data on my different creative outlets. I chose to observe how often I either made a photograph, blog entry, saved a web image, drew in my sketchbook or recorded video, and how significant those individual activities were to me at that point in time. I knew I wanted my chart to look geometric, so I sought to create shapes that could work together to create a larger image, yet were identifiable from one another. I differentiated the activities by assigning them different colors, based on a palette I thought had similar colors which would give dimension to the larger shape created. To represent the level of personal significance, I created a scale that would allow me three different triangle sizes to work with. Each larger shape is made of the different acticvities I did that day, and how significant each of those were.
