Back in 2018 we did an experiment with generating a landscapes based on GPS route data. By merging DEM maps and satellite imagery we where able to generate interactive landscapes dynamically. @cleverfranke.com

Back in 2013, we experimented with visualising data using ThreeJS, plotting over 10K weather stations around the world. The prototype smoothly morphs between a map and globe view. @cleverfranke.com

In this experiment, I explored how simple rules, nested grids, and probabilistic algorithms can generate unique visual compositions, playing with shapes, structure, and color.

In 2012, I created The Virtual City, an interactive visualisation of Facebook user interactions taking place in specific cities. The installation invited visitors to explore through place and time. #processing #creativecoding #dataviz #datavisualization #tbt #data #timeline #explore #data #geography

In 2017, I created a tool to visualise Twitter trends and topics. By setting the URL, it could display any trend, growing over time as more tweets were added.

In 2016, I created a sunburst visualization that compares GDP and population across countries and continents over a 50-year period, incorporating key events that may have influenced these metrics.

In 2016 I created a simple map plotting over 2000 of the largest cities using the Peirce quincuncial projection with the size determined by the population count.

Back in 2015 I created Wiki Serendipity: a simple web app that generates random “facts” using the WikiPedia API to battle doomscrolling and to learn something new everyday.
