Jonathan Liang – Looking Outwards-02

DATA-DADA is a series of algorithms created by Holger Lippmann that reads different color map arrays and represents them in circles and lines. DATA-DADA has created three series of maps. I found these maps interesting because in my architecture studio right now we are studying mapping and these maps can serve as inspiration for me and my projects. One thing that could be more better about these series of projects is if they could specify what the data is about or what they are representing.  But I do love the ambiguity that these circles and lines create. I do not specifically know what inspired Mr. Lippmann, but his DADA series reminds me a lot of Takeshi Murakami’s superflat style. Both artists have a very similar aesthetic, even though Lippmann utilizes data rather than made-up characters.
