Ergon/Logos
I found this interesting poem/game called Ergon/Logos via Ron Silliman’s blog. The work has been written such that it has vertices at which the reader can choose from one or more edges. ( I know we’ve seen this before.) What is interesting is the vizualization of this process. I won’t say more, just try it.

Graphs on Crack
The NY Times put up this unbelievable interactive chart created from government data on how people use their time. I found it on a great feed call Junkcharts, dedicated to ridding the world of bad infographics. Check out their write up on the site. They expose some interesting relationships between demographic factors. The chart also kind of reminds me of a cool infographic posted on earlier using similar data for Japan. Does anyone know what the NY Times is using to render their graphic? Is it Processing like the Japanese graphic?
