Creative Explorations in Screen-Based and Physical Computing

DGMD S-15, Summer 2016

object orientation & data visualization

Starting with a single circle

Make some circles of your own

  1. Find a partner (if you'd like) and choose some data you'd like to represent
  2. Download this gist — the one Alec just worked with — and start messing around to get it to represent the things you'd hoped for
  3. Post your results to your journal

Studio Time


  • Make sure the current state of your project is posted online and linked from your journal
  • Make a first draft outline/sketch/slide deck for your final share-out and post on your journal
  • And answer the usual questions:
    1. What did you accomplish today?
    2. What do you aim to have done by next session?
    3. What can we do to help?

For next session

  1. Come in with some version of a functional demo/presentation on Monday to share-out/test with a partner.
  2. Make sure we have up-to-date links to your journal and your /people card, if we haven't received them from you yet.
  3. Answer the usual questions for your project in your journal:
    1. What did you accomplish today?
    2. What do you aim to have done by next session?
    3. What can we (the teaching team) do to help?
  4. If you get stuck, submit a Code Snippet Request or get in touch on Slack if you have any trouble!
