week 12


SEEING INVISIBLE INFLUENCES
Lecturer: Martin Wattenberg | "Big Picture" Visualization Group, Google


the morning after fresh snow you can see the tracks of all the animals that have passed during the night.  the trails do not follow each other, but each one indicating comings and goings spread out over time.  if the lion tracks and the deer tracks happened at the same time, the deer tracks would abruptly end, and other evidence of meeting would appear. If deer tracks go in different directions, again, time passed between their placement.  different deer.  small tracks, bigger ones. mole tracks, tunnels pushing up above.
visualized


Martin Wattenberg has focused on making visable  and comprehensible ideas, actions, events in ways we have not considered.  that is what we do as artists.
