ANALOG WAYS TO SHOW THE PATTERNS IN EVERYDAY DATA.

Giorgia Lupi and Stefanie Posavec’s latest collaboration is Observe, Collect, Draw!: A Visual Journal.

Dear Data was a year-long analog exchange of ideas. Stefanie (London) and Giorgia (Brooklyn) mailed each other weekly data viz postcards. On the front was a hand-drawn visualization of an aspect of personal data. On the back was an explanation, and a key to understand the data. The project later became a book.
