Dear charts experts and data visualization specialists, this first post is for you.
I know that you have listened to John Peltier, Jorge Camoes, Stephen Few… But it’s time to read again Florence Nightingale, William Playfair and even Raymond Loewy! Before calling heretics the ones who are using more pixel per information, don’ make the same mistake as the medieval Inquisition who had this narrow-minded vision of what said the Bible and what should be done. Thinking too technically or even too mechanically cannot help you to understand the aesthetic part of Edward Tufte’s work.
Inside our company, we have one of the major european data visualization library. We don’t see a single truth. So please open your mind to many other theories (as there are many gospels in the Bible) such as Story-telling, Neuro-Marketing, Semiology, Chromoteraphy…
Stay tuned, because we will try to show new ideas.
