WHY FREE DATA

"Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two makes four. If that is granted, all else follows"

___ George Orwell, 1984 ___

WHY DEVELOP NEW SKILLS

“Every skill you don’t have leaves a whole class of stories out of your reach. And data stories are usually the ones that are hiding in plain sight.”

___ Scott Klein ___

BE A JOURNALIST IN A DATA DRIVEN WORLD

"But having an open data portal doesn’t automatically make you a haven of freedom – even Bahrain and Saudi Arabia now have open data portals. [...] This is where data journalists come in – by exposing and interrogating the data, we can test how accurate it is, mash it up with other datasets to produce results that tell you something new about the news.

Hayao Miyazaki's Movies Infographic

Cartoonist, animator, screenwriter, director, film producer, animator. Hayao Miyazaki has also worked on series of very famous anime, as Lupin, Heidi, Anne of Green Gables and Future Boy Conan. Something more than just cartoons for kids and teens. The movies of Miyazaki have everything you want to find.

That's all (or almost) Miyazaki in the dedicated infographic.

Cinecomic: Marvel vs DC Comics at the box office

One of my greatest passions are cinema and movies. I'm also a contributor and journalist for Cinefilos.it, a website that deals with this topics. One of my post on my blog was about the fight at the box office between Marvel and Dc Comics, in a world increasingly characterized by cinecomic.

One of my infographic concerned how much the superheroes earned at cinema. This visualization is dated November 11, 2014.

Robin Williams' career in an infographic

Robin Williams died on August 11, 2014. He was a great actor, comedian, screenwriter, capable of reaching the highest award, the Oscar, in 1998, with his performance in the film Good Will Hunting. An Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, but alsothree nominations for Best Actor, as well as three Golden Globe Awards and numerous other awards.

I  retraced his career with an infographic.

Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) Infographic

My second infographic was about the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). I am really interested in Geopolitics, and i needed a visualization to summarize an article on this terroristic organization. The infographic is nothing special. Is a simple summary of what I wrote in my piece, analyzing the phenomenon of Islamic terrorism. Also this infographic is made with the help of Easel.ly, Infogr.am and Gimp. 

My first (raw and ugly) infographic

My first approach with visualization was more then 2 years ago, when I was looking for a graphic to assist an article about all the wars around the world at that time. The most important thing was to map (also very vaguely) events, to show the most dangerous places in the world. At that time I was never been interested in visualization, and I had never heard of softwares like Tableau.

The first open source tool I used was Easel.ly, where is possible to create and share visual ideas in a simple way. This is what I created the first time I tried to visualize something. I don't like it now, obiouvsly. But I want to share it.

My first, raw and ugly infographic!

That is all on Data
