In 2023 I blew it. Wrong topic.
In 2004 I got it right. My Viz made the list of the ~200 finalists.
In 2025, how will I do?
My second, proper, Iron Viz entry is in. The title “What’s your Tipple”. All focused on the delicious world of cocktails and taking the viewer on a journey to find one, or more, for them.
What did I learn, too much to write here. I got a connected Beeswarm Chart to work, which means I got Beeswarm charts to work. I got the slick but truly tedious dashboard navigation to work – so one dashboard flips through charts, rather than having to change to different tabs. Tedious that is, hurt do my hands from all the mouse work.
I also learned a ton of charts as preparation and trials, the helpfulness and limits of ChatGPT in data. And I played with my vizology knowledge – the art side and the science side.
For the record, the viz. More learning to follow when my muscles recover.
