Joanne Chui – Looking Outwards 09

Flight Patterns by Aaron Koblin

For this Looking Outwards, I decided to focus on my friend Ammar Hassonjee’s Looking Outwards which is about Aaron Koblin’s project Flight Patterns. It is interesting in how it uses lines to visualize three dimensional flight patterns through America. I thought it was interesting how these scientists took data and input that into an algorithm that creating such a captivating visualization.

I agree with Ammar in how it is interesting that Aaron was able to show movement and directionality just using data. I also liked how Adobe after effects was also used to further edit the visualization.
