Susan Lin — InfoViz, Update
I have started to tackle my project. I see this in 2 parts:
1. Data Wrangling – Source: Comments RSS. Here is the simple way I am attempting to make sense of it and putting it in a form:
- Indicate +/- words
- Input: comment
- Output: categories
- Change radius based on number of words
- Irregular shape: vector function, RNG for shape, +/- for change
2. Form – Starting here as it made more sense for me to, the exact means of wrangling the data will depend on how I’d like things to look/interact. A bit backwards, but works best for me.
Starting places: Bouncy Bubbles, Lava Lamp
Bouncy Bubbles is a great resource! I can see you merging that with the Laval Lamp … hah angry word blobs fighting away.
Oh, also check out Synesketch for Processing, a textual emotion recognition and visualization library.
