katieche – looking outwards – 07

I chose the work of Nicolas Felton because I had found out about him back when I was in high school, and I thought everything he did at the time was just through adobe programs, not through computation or coding! His work is really fascinating as he essentially records every moment of his life for an entire year (every year), and then complies them into informational graphics for an annual report on each January 1st. He uses processing to create graphs and charts, and then exports them into Adobe InDesign to create his reports. He’s even created an app which sends users reminders to record data, and essentially collects, and categorizes the user’s everyday data.
