2015 | UI DATA VISUALIZATION
This project is a data visualization piece programmed as a visual tool to understand the history of our not-so-new-anymore field. It serves as an hommage and a tool for context.
The project uses two primary datasets: the New York Times APIS and Google's Ngram Viewer. Both datasets provided insights on the popularity of specific topics and key authors over time.
I paid special attention to the interface design, which allows the visualization to be used as a software tool. The user can interact and choose different visualization methods to find the required information.
