ADVICE, EXPERIMENTS AND THING'S WE'VE FOUND INTERESTING IN THE WORLD OF DATA STORYTELLING AND VISUALISATION

To improve at Data Visualisation, its important we do two things: 1. We Find Inspiration from Others; 2. We Practice and Seek Feedback. (It's also important that we critique but I will leave that for another post). There is so much good work and innovation at the moment in the field of data visualisation and one group that look to support that are the good folks at #MakeoverMonday. The team at Makeover Monday publish a new dataset and visualisation each Sunday and then invite people from the data visualisation community (you and me) to take a go at redesigning the visualisation to tell your own story and give your own perspective. By sharing your visualisation on a platform like Twitter, it then gives others the opportunity to comment and feedback to help you hone your visualisation. I've only recently discovered this initiative but there are datasets going all the way back to 2016 and the team's favourite makeovers associated with them. By providing this service, the team at Makeover Monday have created the perfect platform for finding inspirations from others, practicing on a weekly basis and getting into the habit of giving and receiving feedback so we can all continue to learn and develop.
If you're serious about improving your data visualisation capabilities and design, here is the perfect opportunity and community to do that with.
