Why I think the data should be from the internets is because of 2 reasons. 1. Data visualization art's value rely a lot of part on the data. (Yet I am still confused whether that data itself is art or the visualized work is art) The data should be valuable to get visualized and shown to others. ; I do not want to see other people's private life but I also do not want to just make a graph out of my life. I do not want to control the data, but I would like other parameters to change the data, and so I would like the users to do that. 2. Also, those data should be updating fast and so the internet lets it do that easily. If those data is past, then I am afraid it might not be interesting or valuable to look at. If the net art goes out of date, then I am afraid that it will be no longer valuable to appreciate it. It might just be staying in histor books, but no one would be enjoying it.
Animails
by Carolin Horn, 2007.
Carolin Horn visualizes our mailbox. We should download his work and put our mail address book into his files so that it can make the visual as he intended. There are 5 kinds of swarmlike figures and each of them stands for the groups which I will be putting the address into. And there is 1 spam group which Iwould be recieveing most of the mails from. It makes me realize that spam mails are like bacteria that reproduces.
