And there’s me worried about learning to crochet a granny square for grannylifecrochet.com

Still time to join the Granny Life community math/art project at www.grannylifecrochet.com ! My job is assembly, so today I am learning about braided fishing wire and how to tie fishing nets. Hoping to incorporate a strong net grid into the project. It's going to weigh about 15-20 pounds!

NEW: Questions in Dataviz: Is it time to embrace Granny Life? Created by @mathgrrl.com - a geometrical mathematically-generated 10x10 grid physical dataviz, to be displayed in a mathematical art exhibition in Paris next year. Still time for all to take part! questionsindataviz.com/2025/11/11/i...

When I have to randomly put a bunch of dots on a map, I too copy paste clusters and rotate them around to make it look like they are actually different

A question for my German, Spanish and French friends on here: How to you refer to the term AI? Do people in French and Spanish refer to it as IA? And in German as KI? Or is it a global term known as AI pretty much everywhere? Thanks / Merci / Danke / Gracias!

What were the chances of that? - I met the guy who sold me the @datavandals.bsky.social T-shirt right here in Vienna! Great to catch up with @jasonforrest.bsky.social as part of @csh.ac.at’s Visualising Complexity workshop - so many great people are here collaborating on fun visualisation projects

Brace yourself - here’s dataviz @ryanairofficial.bsky.social style!

Looking forward to a week of fun complex dataviz in Vienna! 🇦🇹

My latest article for @datavizsociety.bsky.social’s Nightingale magazine is out now. Check out my interview with Angelica Lo Duca, author of “Become a Great Data Storyteller” - we discuss heroes, sidekicks, minions and more, along with the inevitable growth of AI …

Thanks to everyone at the Illustrating Mathematics week at ICERM who made Granny Life squares this week! Almost 20 now completed!! Get the free pattern and motif generator at www.grannylifecrochet.com

Granny Life Progress Report! Out of 100 squares needed, 6 are completed and 54 more are claimed and in progress! Still 40 squares left to claim if you would like to join the cellular automata community crochet math/art project at www.grannylifecrochet.com #geek #mathart #grannylife #crochet 🧶

If you're going to download my mappy tribute to #OzzyOsbourne that plots his touring history with both #BlackSabbath and as a solo artist be sure to look out for a couple of easter eggs. Free download: carto.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.ht...

This looks so good … Sadly I can’t make it this year but a great deal just got better!

Math nerds and crafty geeks! You are invited to crochet a granny square based on a cellular automaton for the Granny Life project at www.grannylifecrochet.com. Your work could end up in an art exhibit in Paris! There are plenty of motifs still available to claim :) #mathsky #crochet 🧶

I've signed up for @mathgrrl.com 's amazing #grannylifecrochet project at www.grannylifecrochet.com. I'm not a granny and I've never crocheted but this looks like a great opportunity to take part in mass participation maths algorithm based art. What's not to like? Squares still available!🇫🇷🧶

Why I 🧡 the web. drawafish.com Just draw the fish. Trust me. 🐟

Looking forward to discussing CHART in the upcoming DataVis Book Club on August 18th! ^_^

NEW: Questions in Dataviz: What is a Hitomezashi Snowflake? questionsindataviz.com/2025/07/25/w... Inspired by @mathskath.bsky.social - looking at encoding data as hitomezashi stitching (steganocoding) and creating digital equivalents, before diving into the mathematics of snowflakes.

My latest visualisation - Hitomezashi Snowflakes. Inspired by @mathskath.bsky.social and her book A Stitch in Line, here's my digital recreation of an order five Fibonacci snowflake (highlighted in white, with smaller order snowflakes in different colours). Blog post and explanation to follow! 📊

#dataviz 📊 Connecting the dots: From data to knowledge to wisdom to ... ???

Updated my Emily Vanderpoel inspired Wimbledon viz with yesterday's Singles Finals games.. Even an unorthodox design-inspired viz can show how cruel tennis scoring can be. Anisimova may not have registered a single game but did win just over 30% of the total points in Swiatek's 6-0 6-0 win. 📊

Love these from @mathgrrl.com - definitely not just for grannies!

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. questionsindataviz.com/2025/07/03/w...

Oh my word - Sesame Street meets MC Escher, two of my long term obsessions!

Ok, BBC Sport, a full filled in bar represents 57%? Got it - that’s nice and clear 🤯

📚 Ready for the next book club discussion? We are! 📆 On August 18th at 4pm UTC, we’ll be diving into "CHART" by @nadiehbremer.com. Join us here on this notepad: notes.dw.tools/p/chart All the details for this session 👇 www.datawrapper.de/blog/chart-n...

Just seen my first waterfall chart in real life - on @bbcnewsuk.bsky.social 📊

This looks amazing! As an alumnus of Binoculars to Binomials I know how much fun this trip could be - sadly my leave (and my budget) for trips like this has all been used up this year otherwise I’d seriously be contemplating it. @jerthorp.bsky.social will be an awesome host!

My latest book arrival - modern reprint of 1901 original by Emily Noyes Vanderpoel. 116 colour plates, mostly 10x10 analysis grids of colour compositions from historical and cultural objects. 10x10 grids, minimalist pictures, coloured blocks, how have I just found this now?! #datavizinspiration

It’s #IIBAwards here at the Coral Gables Museum in Miami. Honoured to be here with @datarevelations.com and @datavizsociety.bsky.social Executive Director Christopher Laubenthal

Next up at #outlier2025 is @mikevizneros.bsky.social and Alex Velez from @storytellingwith.bsky.social - explaining how “nothing” matters - when data is missing we lack trust in the data.

The results of Sophie Sparkes’ workshop at #outlier2025 - so much fun!

Time for a pens, paper, data workshop with the brilliant Sophie Sparkes at #outlier2025

Really enjoyed Rachel Wilkerson’s talk at #outlier2025 - so many people involved in putting together an amazing art installation and so much trust and goodwill between them all. Here’s the awesome final project! gratitude-data-art.netlify.app
