Interesting 🤔 That could work really well...

Totally, it is interactive and you could interact with it on a browser (not deployed yet).

I like that idea 😉

I was thinking about doing it like a coiled phone cable and animate it with a camera movement from the center.

Would love to see that actually 😛

Hi Ian, do you have a picture of how the Climate Explorer does it? I curious to see how they have approached the issue 👀

Thanks Ed! Brilliant idea 🔥 I could animate the donuts over time to show warming trends. I’ll see how far back open-meteo.com goes. Do you know any other free datasets with long-term city-level climate records?

Exactly! Weird + challenging is where the good stuff happens 😅

So here it is: my dumb data viz experiment. 🍩
✔️ Solves the continuity problem
❌ Harder to spot patterns
❌ Hours are visually distorted
But hey… not everything has to be practical, sometimes it’s just fun! 😅 Also: how cool would it be to create a physical object like this?

I came across those flat climate charts where x = day of year & y = hour of day. They’re neat, but the "cut" at January & midnight always felt arbitrary. 🤔
So I thought… what if we used a torus? The perfect loop for time & seasons!

Thanks for the addition 🙏

Thanks for this idea! They do have some graphical skills, so this could be a great way to quickly create an original design based on data and then explore their own ways to physicalize it using a variety of materials.

I tried using AI to make these hybrid animals look more realistic… and failed spectacularly. 🤦♂️
It kept messing up the proportions, swapping animal parts randomly, or just refusing to follow the sequence. Maybe I just suck at prompting? 😅

I recently revisited @ourworldindata.org after learning that @maxroser.bsky.social received honorary doctorates from KU Leuven & UC Louvain for his work in making global trends more accessible (Congrats for that!). This viz by @hannahritchie.bsky.social caught my eye—and inspired my own take on it!
