Because sometimes is not easy to explain wtf I work on:

David McCandless is known as the ‘data journalist’ behind the impressive book The Visual Miscellaneum: A Colorful Guide to the World’s Most Consequential Trivia and the blog Information is Beautiful. In a short amount of time, he has proven to be able to turn large, complex datasets into beautiful, simple diagrams that reveal unseen patterns and connections. In particular, David is one of the few people worldwide who explicitly tries to balance himself on the high rope that connects beauty and function. And this without any training in design or art.
