Fleshmap: Studies of Desire

Media_httpwwwfleshmap_beyih

Brilliant playful site exploring desire and the body through data viz:

"We asked hundreds of people how much they like being caressed on various parts of their body, and how exciting it is to touch different places on their lovers. Their answers, a total of 33,871 ratings covering 707 points on male and female bodies, provide a collective portrait of desire. In Skin to Skin, compare men and women, touching and being touched. In Sorting out Desire, explore an atlas of excitement."

HINT.FM / Can visualization tell never-before-told stories? find truths about color, memory, and sensuality?

This is the collaboration site of Fernanda Viégas and Martin Wattenberg. We invent new ways for people to think and talk about data.

As technologists we ask, Can visualization help people think collectively? Can visualization move beyond numbers into the realm of words and images?

As artists we seek the joy of revelation. Can visualization tell never-before-told stories? Can it uncover truths about color, memory, and sensuality?


lovely work

Ideas the cloudanian way

Cloudanians are great because of how we think. It’s true.
We know HOW to tackle challenges and handle change. We see all kinds of challenges coming and we turn them into even more interesting ones if necessary. We all are true creatives! Oh yes. We identify real needs and work out insights that guide us in the rest of the process. We do great facilitated idea generation sessions. They involve everyone because the best ideas come from a yes-mode, a lot of ideas and collaboration. An important part of being a generous team player and effective creative is to learn to let go of limitations, boundaries and to see solutions where others see obstacles.

Open up - build on others ideas and think big
Harvest and analyze - good ideas are built on a considered approach.
Open up - again…and again…
