How do you choose (continuous) colormaps for visualization? Let's assume 0 <= domain <= +inf, where lower is not necessarily 'good' or 'bad' (e.g. elevation data)
The default option in vis authoring tools

A personalized colormap I made that I always use

Anyone in NYC should go see the Adrian Piper exhibition at MoMA, she has a lot of data-related work.

Let me know if you want to go together! I have $5 tickets and am definitely going again

@nrchtct Could you please clarify what the Info+ conference is? Are all the submissions for workshops/symposia? Or are they exhibitions? Thank you

Did you say #treelove, @scott? Data comic #3, more info at https://medium.com/@Matt1Hong/data-comic-3-the-colors-of-fall-in-new-york-city-252917294b33

Thanks for everyone on their input. There's a lot of room for experimentation, as I have with colors and speech bubbles here. So criticisms are always welcome
