Data is everywhere! It amazing how it can all be gathered up to create a great display of information and knowledge. The tutorial on this subject really stood-out to me. It showed me how the collection of data can reveil things that my have been missed in the past. The two TED videos were a great show of how data can be gatherd up and utilised to show the 'Bigger picture'.
Also it dawned on me that visualisation like this is being shown to me everyday. Such as the weather report for the week. It is all conveniently placed up on screen to get a message across, this is all taken for granted. The finicial report is also a huge congregation of data for the public to view.
Another great display of large amount of data is the current A.C.T election. Television programs display the data for the home viewers to keep up with who is winning. Also the ABC website provides a detailed look at the polls so the viewer can read at his/her disgretion.
