On this chart, I think that it is dynamic in the range of definitions going on. The circle works well while being centered on the globe. I would like my map to be circular, as I am new to mapping, but comfortable with circles. I also wish to apply a usage of color to denote certain topics,
This map is a pie chart, which I want to branch away from, but I want to color code like this and have additions to my circle frame.
This Influence mixes sections into the same linear ray offshooting the center of the map. I want my design to have different data in the same "slice" of the pie.
Here I like the use of icons, and pictograms. On my graph where for example I have given my dog treats, I would like to put an image of the product. I like using photographs because sometimes people will relate better to the information then.
To me, this seems harder to read, and not as exact, but I am drawn to the mixture of shapes, and how it is a circular shape, filled with circles. Very visually stimulating.
PROBLEM: The problem I am trying to solve is whether or not someone has enough time to get a pet. Especially if this person goes to college full time and also has a job. I charted my interactions with my dog for a week. A point that needs to be made is that my dog is almost 11 years old. The time needed to care for a puppy would be much higher. So this info would pertain to somebody maybe looking to adopt an adult dog.
DATA: In minutes, with percentages of the day next to it in pencil







Interesting data choice. Circles may work very well because they could symbolize a ball and dogs and puppies love playing with balls. Also, the circle idea could give your design a playful edge.
ReplyDeleteI think this is definitely a different idea than most and could be executed really cool and differently! The idea of time is interesting and gives you a lot to work with.
ReplyDeleteI think that is an interesting idea how you created this persons day up using the data to see if they can get a pet. I think you are on the right track with your influences also.
