New blog post about data art!

Have you ever wondered:

What is data-driven art?
Why do people make data art?
How do I get started making my own?

Then this blog post is for you! It includes an example using #TidyTuesday data - with code in both #Python and #RStats!

Sometimes, updating a Data Art piece is just too much of an emotional drain. And the piece must remain out of date.

But to be honest, that's part of the piece itself.

How Big is 400,000? https://kristinhenry.github.io/howBig/

I wrote a bit about the piece: https://kristinhenry.medium.com/how-big-is-400-000-922841dbc986

I’m thrilled to bring together two institutions that shaped my work: BarabásiLab & metaLAB (at) Harvard.

On June 11–12, 2025, we’re hosting Data | Art—a conference on how data entangles with artistic, scientific & curatorial practices.

We already have a stellar lineup of speakers! More soon: https://data-art.info/

Thinking back on this fun project I did...a century ago?...anyway, I was wondering how Randy Rainbow grew in popularity and did a cute little study and data visualization.

I really did have fun with this one!

And yes, I do still love bubble charts!

My goal is to send out a new batch of stickers and notes on Monday. So this is a great weekend to sign up for my #StickersAndStamps project.

I'm wanting to distract myself from current events, and somehow this animation of garbage pickups in nyc seemed both distracting from and relevant to current events. Ha!

Sadly, I have to keep this video behind a paywall at my Patreon. But my supporters there, can see and watch the video.

Realizing I somehow messed up my portfolio site...and now working fixing, improving, and updating it.

But came across this piece I developed early in the Covid years.
