NEW: Questions in Dataviz: When does a Chart become Art?

@nadiehbremer.com's book is a beautifully documented invitation to data visualisers new and experienced alike to follow her into creative areas where she has been the first to tread.

Enjoying @nadiehbremer.com's CHART (and the sun 😁). It's a great book — Nadieh's work is amazing anyways, and I love how generously she shares her tricks and recipes. www.routledge.com/CHART-Design...

Honored to get such a joyful reaction from @tulpinteractive.com about receiving my new book, especially as I name him as one of my main sources of inspiration at the start of the book 😊

Congrats to @nadiehbremer.com on her successful launch at Outlier yesterday! I can't wait to see more people fall in love with this book.

From seeing the mock ups to holding it in my hand, I don't think this book could have come out any more beautiful.

I just had my virtual book launch for CHART at Outlier!! ✨😃 (together with @datacitron.bsky.social who did the whole layout design)
It’s the chART virtual book launch at #outlier2025 - here’s @nadiehbremer.com and @juliebrunet.bsky.social appearing remotely, with @zanewolf.bsky.social proudly displaying the real book! Can’t wait to get hold of my copy (frustratingly 3000 miles away from me at home right now!)

ICYMI but "CHART: Designing Creative Data Visualizations from Charts to Art" is officially released and I'm having a virtual launch party tomorrow at Outlier conference 🎉 Come join me tomorrow at June 11th, at 09:30 PST / 12:30PM EDT / 18:30 CEST! 😃

📣 NEW WORK!
Making the invisible visible. I'm thrilled to share the data art system I created for the Environmental Defense Fund that reveals how much methane was added to the atmosphere for each year that you've been alive.

It’s #TimeForCH4nge

Excited to speak at the launch of the European Civil Society Observatory on Methane on 7 April and show you the new data art system I created!

Exploring how data, science & art can drive action to cut methane & slow #GlobalWarming

NEW WORK! ✨

I got to create this 2-page spread for an article in @sciam.bsky.social on the puzzling lack of worlds outside our solar system in a certain size range; the "Radius Gap."

Visualizing several hundred exoplanets as a polar plot + contours.

It's apparently been over a year, but I just published a newsletter again! Read about several of the new projects I've released since then (and then there's the new book of course, minor thing ;) )

open.substack.com/pub/visualci...
I wrote a second book! But also GitHub Networks, Exoplanets and Startups
From an elaborate interactive network exploring GitHub repositories for Mozilla, to visualizing exoplanets for Scientific American, and more. Oh right, before I forget, I’ve written a new dataviz book...

Working on a new project where I want to take these rings and make them flow together a bit as if each ring is made from gas & interacts (along its edges) with the next ring(s)

Now starting an hour-long Fluid Simulation video by The Coding Train 😃💪

Any info is appreciated! 🙏

It's been a _very_ long time, but I finally wrote an extensive full dataviz design creation blog post again! 🙌

On the communication side of dataviz — what would you say, were the "hits" in the last few years? Pieces that went viral, found wide adoption, opened new audiences, were shared a lot.

📣 NEW WORK - Part II! 📣

Another GitHub-focused visualization. This time revealing the top contributors to any repository and the other projects they’ve worked on, highlighting synergies across repos: nbremer.github.io/ORCA/top-con...

My latest project lets you explore the entire commit history of any GitHub repo ✨

Obviously, D3.js was one of the 1st repos I tested. You can clearly see the 3000+ commits made by its creator @ocks.org! But also @fil.rezo.net & many others.

📣 NEW WORK 📣

I worked with Mozilla Builders and created 2 interactive visuals around GitHub repositories and the contributors who are working hard to improve these projects. This 1st visual reveals the entire commit history, clustered per month.
