Visualizing Data by Ben Fry
Enormous quantities of data go unused or underused, simply because people can't visualize the quantities and relationships in it. Using a downloadable programming environment, this book demonstrates methods for representing data on the Web and elsewhere, complete with user interaction, animation, and more.
Ben Fry received his doctorate from the Aesthetics + Computation Group at the MIT Media Laboratory and was the 2006-2007 Nierenberg Chair of Design for the Carnegie Mellon School of Design. He worked with Casey Reas to develop Processing, which won a Golden Nica from the Prix Ars Electronica in 2005. Ben's work has received a New Media Fellowship from the Rockefeller Foundation, and been shown at the Museum of Modern Art, Ars Electronica, the 2002 Whitney Biennial and the 2003 Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial.
