@arnicas search is always under invested in, a basic search tricks the team into thinking it's "working" but then it's not really working for most people

@giorgialupi this is amazing. I'd love to hear more about the meditative aspect of data collection and the collaboration process of making it visual. Data collection can be daunting/boring and even scary when it's medical. here it was healing. did you guide her on collecting the data? did she share early samples for you to think about/experiment with? I loved seeing what you came up with but I imagine the "how" has a lot to do with the trust between the two of you?

@lamir groetjes!

@kristinHenry I think that would be a good meetup on it's own. but certainly we can take a look at some 5.0 blocks together

new bay area d3 meetup alert! https://www.meetup.com/Bay-Area-d3-User-Group/events/247211411/?_cookie-check=FcTFbJjdusTCnB_t in Oakland on 2/13 we are throwing a block party!

it's an idea I've had for a while to try a different event format. I plan to MC and "VJ" blocks that I find interesting as well as ones people attending are interested in. I imagine it will be a fun way to dive into a wide variety of tech & design inspirations

#introductions continued

I built http://blockbuilder.org with the support of the #d3js community and http://blockbuilder.org/search to help create and find d3 examples.

I co-organize the SF Bay Area d3 meetup because d3 is hard to learn and misery loves company ;) it's also really fun to meet others doing and making cool things you never expected!

Twitter played a big part in developing and expanding my craft. interested to see how a more focused community does!

#introductions

hello, I'm a prototyper, tool maker, community organizer and long time fan of #d3js

I currently work at Google as a "UX Engineer" which is basically a front-end prototyper. I focus on making data visualizations for internal proof of concepts for the Google Cloud Platform.

I also 20% on http://distill.pub with Google Brain where I'm learning all kinds of stuff about Machine Learning and trying to make visualizations that help others understand too.
