You've Never Seen Over 11,000 People Killed By Guns Like This (VIDEO)
You’ve Never Seen Over 11,000 People Killed By Guns Like This (VIDEO)
America has a gun problem. Every single day, at least 30 people die from a gun wound. Some of it “accidental,” some of it by suicide, some of it homicide. In 2013, for example. About 11,419 people died because of guns.

We have on stage: Kim Rees co-founder of Periscopic, a data visualization company guided by the motto: “do good with data” and Jake Porway, founder of Data Kind, an organization that brings together data scientists and social organizations. We discuss about the challenges of working in this crazy world of big data opportunities and counterbalance this with risks and subtle potentially negative implications.

This reminds me of an answer Jonathan Harris once said about the difference between video and photo. Most videos, as he put it, makes people go "wow" with arms raised and their bodies leaned back. But photographs make people go "wow" as the audience lean closer. It's the difference between trying "to impress or stun people" vs "trying to invite people to participate" and "fill-in" what you've intentionally left out. Of course, he answered the question by telling a story of his teacher named Baz.
“We’re not going to dumb it down because we don’t want to teach to the lowest common denominator. We don’t want to take everyone back down to bargraphs!”
And as Amanda Cox put it in her HBR interview:
There's a strand of the data viz world that argues that everything could be a bar chart. That's possibly true but also possibly a world without joy.

Interesting piece by fastcodesign.com interviewing Kim Rees, co-founder of Periscopic, on the secret to good data visualization.
Read on to learn what it is.
There is no such thing as “good data”, there is only good context. You can create a compelling data visualization out of any data source, as long as you use the right context.
