Graphs, diagrams, number lines as language

Posted by: dogtrax in Homepage, Other

In my Bloglines account, I have a number of humorous feeds (I hope you all do, too) and one that continues to make me think is called Indexed, and it uses Venn Diagrams and other charts to make simple, yet intriguing, insights. It is as if the artist has a few minutes to spare, doodles some cool idea, and then graphs it out (I am thinking math concepts as a storytelling device here).

Here is the post from the other day:

This morning, the Indexed site had a link to a very neat movie that uses some of the same concepts in a very intriguing way, drawing connections to thoughts through lines, diagrams and other concepts of math.

Check out the movie from Le Grand Content

Peace (in numbers),
Kevin

    [...] Until Kevin linked to Indexed. It’s a GREAT graphic blog. It’s smart. It’s funny. The author, Jessica Hagy, uses graphs and diagrams to produce cultural commentary. Good stuff. [...]
