Pulse is a live visualization project by Berlin-based artist Markus Kison. It’s based around a shapeshifting, heart-like object that reacts to the emotions expressed by the authors of private weblogs on blogger.com. A program aggregates words in blogs’ text and scans for synonyms that correlate with the emotional concepts in Robert Plutchik’s three-dimensional circumplex model describing the psychoevolutionary theory of emotion. The more one a the emotions is represented, the more corresponding portion of the organism is mechanically activated. Blurring the lines between art and technology, Pulse uses data to create the very organic visualization. read more

I came across some beautiful maps/diagrams/graphic design from degregorio’s photostream on flickr.

Working on a project where you open the door to propose the best of your design, an agency that you feel so avant-garde design with sticks and stones, is a unique opportunity to showcase and strive to experiment with concrete elements. Thus, the Centre for Mathematical Modeling at the University of Chile contact Thesis DG, to make a paper which seeks to explain how advanced mathematics can explain from the simplest problem, until the trend of expansion and more complex organic growth. read more

During spring in Denmark, at approximately one half an hour before sunset, flocks of more than a million European starlings (sturnus vulgaris) gather from all corners to join in the incredible formations shown above. This phenomenon is called Black Sun (in Denmark), and can be witnessed in early spring throughout the marshlands of western Denmark, from March through to the middle of April. The starlings migrate from the south and spend the day in the meadows gathering food, sleeping in the reeds during the night. The best place to view this amazing aerial dance is in the place called “Tøndermarsken,” where these pictures were taken (on April 5 from 19.30 to 20.30 local time).
