#Exercise 1 @ Quantify & Visualise Data

Fig 1.1 Data Visualization, Final Outcome (week 6 / 18.02.2023)

#Explanation:
For this pieces, I used lego as my data collection and grouped them according to their types of blocks. After sorting them all in a layout, I visualised them by wrote the data - colour and number of each types of block. For example :

➜ 1 block - Black: 6, Pink: 3 in a total of 9
➜ 2 block - Yellow: 6, Dark Grey: 3, Grey: 9 in a total of 18
➜ 3 block - Grey: 7 in a total of 7
➜ 3 block (L shape) - Grey: 13, White: 17 in a total 30
➜ 4 block - Grey: 6, White: 9 in a total of 15
➜ 6 block - Brown: 4, Grey: 10, White: 22 in a total of 36
➜ 8 block - Grey: 5, White: 2 in a total of 7

REFLECTION

Apart from the challenges facing in group assignments, the entire experience with information design was pretty engaging. In short, Information Design is a module that focuses on after effects, which indirectly compelled me to learn AE. Before to this module, I was actually pretty resistant to AE. I always find it challenging and refused to use it. But, from kinetic typography through Project 1, the cooking recipe infographic, to the burnout infographic, I can experienced that I am developing in AE. The most challenging aspect of this procedure for AE is that you must maintain extreme concentration when playing a frame that may only last two seconds over and over again until you get the desired effect. Generally speaking, though, if you can get the desired impression then you even enjoy it. To sum up, I had really enjoyed the entire adventures in this module, and overall the results were satisfying, however occasionally I might get burned out due to perfectionism. 🥴💥
