In today's lesson with Steve, i experimented with different tools on Illustrator and came up with a few abstract images. I learnt lots of techniques including; creating spirals, wrapping text around it, using the swirl tool, inserting colours for fill and lines. Here is a screen shot of some of the images i created, using these new techniques.
Although this is not representing data (as this was a practice), this has helped me with my understanding of Illustrator. Also today i completed a visualising data sheet, where i sketched a few ideas of presented the information of a graph that was provided. Here are a few images that i found off of Google, which is a good representation of information that is more interesting for someone to visualise, rather than just a simple, boring graph or table.
There are many different ways of interpreting data, and therefore many different ways of presenting it. From very simple, to really unique and complicated, they are all more pleasing to the eye than the usual, very boring table or list.
