Visualizing how Homeless People are being Bussed Around the US, diving into Cardcaptor Sakura, and more
Sharing my latest personal & client projects, art collections, blogs, and more
Ready for 2018?
Now that 2017 is almost at an end (for some, 2018 might've already started!) I wanted to share some of the data visualization projects I've worked on over the past few months. Perhaps these can help you start the new year with some inspiration. Especially having worked together with the Guardian on visualizing the story about how homeless people are being bussed around the US was very special. But I’ve also gone into Cardcaptor Sakura, the Top 2000 best songs, exoplanets and the Freedom of Expression.
Bussed out | The Guardian
The biggest and most intense data visualization project I’ve ever worked on (together with the wonderful Shirley Wu). A scrollytelling-style US map, animated journey arcs, and more visualizations support the story.
This intricate article investigates how US cities give thousands of homeless people one-way bus tickets out of town each year. Discover what happens at the journey’s end...

Freedom of Expression | Article 19
I had the pleasure of working together with ARTICLE 19, a human rights organization. Turning their data about the freedom of expression across the world into an artful, explorable visualization.

Let The Music Play | Personal Project
My yearly December project: Visualizing the Top 2000 (the best songs ever made) and how the songs are distributed according to their year of release. Investigate how artists perform, the "best" years, and more in this year's "vinyl" theme.

Meet the Neighbours | Scientific American
And finally, in the December issue of the Scientific American, you can find a visualization in "Graphic Science" of our nearest stars and which of those have planets. It was wonderful to be able to combine my background in Astronomy with my passion for the visualization of data!
