Looking Outwards 09: On Looking Outwards

For this week’s Looking Outwards, I looked at Shaun’s (I worked with him in lab) LO for week 7 on Information Visualization. Shaun talked about Stefanie Posavec’s collaboration project with Greg McInerny titled, “(En)tangled Word Bank.” I agree with Shaun that this project is a very cool way to portray evolution, and I think that the six different editions of the project show how Darwin’s “On the Origin of Species.” One thing I would add is that Posavec is very interested in wearable art/art that can be interacted with and utilized in common settings, so it makes sense that she’s interested in evolution and the study of biological life.
