For cross-posting purposes: Over on the Seeing Data research project blog, I have posted a collection of 8 articles concerning visual and visualisation literacy.

As ever it was a privilege to be invited to take part in the latest episode 37 of the Data Stories podcast. I joined Enrico and Moritz alongside Scott Murray to discuss the challenges of learning and teaching data visualisation.

It is self-promotion day here on Visualising Data! Just published now is a podcast I did with Julie Gould from the NatureJobs blog, discussing various aspects of the data visualisation game.

I was recently asked to write about the subject in an article for the Harvard Business Review: ‘Visualizing Zero: How to Show Something with Nothing’. This piece offers a brief overview of the content of my talk at OpenVisConf.

It is always a thrill to be invited to contribute to a Data Stories podcast and last week I joined hosts Enrico and Moritz alongside Robert Kosara to review the major trends and developments during 2013 and preview the main hopes and expectations for 2014.

I was thrilled to be invited by George Aranda, editor of the excellent ‘Science Book a Day’, to take part in an interview about a range of visualisation-related themes and to discuss my book that he kindly profiled in December.

I was thrilled to be invited by Visualizing.org to compile the latest in their series of ‘expert galleries’. My choices were based on a selection of great time-based visualisation work.

I was recently asked to contribute a selection of what I believe to be the five most iconic visualisations of the past 10 years for an article on FastCo Labs. The article has now been published and there are some really interesting other selections on there from Robert Kosara and Matt Stiles to make up a top 10 list.

A few weeks ago I wrote a short article for the OECD’s Better Life Index blog and it was just published yesterday. It’s not a groundbreaking piece of work but frames a discussion about the success of the Better Life Index project that many of you will already be familiar with.

Beth Schultz has done a sound job of encapsulating some of the key take-aways from last week’s ‘All Analytics Academy’ session I took part in, specifically focusing on some of the key objectives for visualisation design I spoke about.
