This is a followup to yesterday’s post on the visualization of a day’s worth of trading data on the NASDAQ stock exchange. We’ve taken another look at the same dataset a bit more closely. In the examples that follow, each of which represents a single minute of trading, the image on the left uses a...
Earlier this year Zach Watson and I spent some time visualizing financial data. It’s time to make that work public. The following images represent visualization of buy/sell data during a single day of NASDAQ trades. We mapped a small subset of the variables for each transaction: time of the transaction, to the second whether it...
We’re pleased to announce our second collaboration with Jen Bekman’s 20×200, releasing gorgeous prints of New York City today, and London shortly. There will be more cities coming over the next few months, so please stay tuned! It was a nice sidestep to work with the maps at high resolution, and on paper. We also...
Eric gave a general overview of the changes we rolled out for Toner v2 in this post and this post. In my post I dig into the technical details. But first, pictures!

Ari Messer did a terrific job on the interview, and R.C. Rivera spent an afternoon photographing our plant- and map-filled studio with some lovely results. Unfortunately Shawn...

We’re proud to announce that Trees, Cabs and Crime will be on display in the U.S. Pavilion at the 13th Venice Architecture Biennale this fall. The Institute for Urban Design was chosen by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Education and Cultural Affairs to...
Nathaniel showcased nearly two years of City Tracking in Boston last Monday at the MIT/Knight Story and the Algorithm conference. You can read about this years’ winners here, as well about the changing nature of the grant: shorter cycles, more opportunities to apply, that kind of thing. It’s worth a look. The City Tracking project...
Earlier this year we worked with Warner Bros. to create an interactive map called Quarantine Your City on which fans of the latest Oren Peli thriller, Chernobyl Diaries, could vote to see a special screening in their city. The plot follows a group of modern-day American tourists on an “adventure tour” of Pripyat, the site...
