 In class we discussed on possibilities, I was interested into languages, and more specifically dead languages, and it occurred to me to look at Euskera language. - Euskera is a language which isn't very spoken nowadays, but given the recent political constellation has increased importance, its frequent speakers have increased in number across past years - looked for data at the Euskadi Open Data Bank, data on the 4 provinces + whole País Vasco, every 4 years Another possibility is bike accidents in Madrid --> Despite being a frequent cyclist in Rotterdam I find biking in Madrid dangerous and challenging - found in Madrid open data bank, data on bike and electric accidents in Madrid over the past year: street, coordinates, gender, age, severity of the accident (and extent medical assistance), drug and alcohol influence and so on.           * fun fact: none of the cyclists in any accident were under the influence of alcohol or drugs

To me, the most shocking procesión was Servitas on Friday - jesus already died and it's only the virgin in a very modest throne. The lights of the streets are switched off as the virgin passes through and the crowd gets quiet. It really stirs your emotions.  Before in the past, there were two days in which there was no newspapers or bread from bakeries: Christmas and Good Friday. If we look at countries like Spain, it is impossible to deny the huge influence religion has had upon our culture. 

Systematic storytelling format  - not necessarily linear - "Designing universal knowledge": works with system of encyclopedia and hyperlink, ability to get ≠ perspectives on data Methods organisation: - 5 categories, time (735yrs) - 2 languages - hyperlinks - archive tools Storytelling graph - traditional storytelling follows a timeline - what Gerllinde did, start in the present, and jump back in time, getting a chain reaction of 200 stories, with 2 layers of stories - inspired by art, visual stories... for instance Trajan's columns, repeats standardized scenes and in a circle - theatre representing life of amsterdammers based on stats and demographics chose the participants and would perform they day in stage --> Living statistics Why systematic storytelling? - method to communicate complex narratives > new storytelling format - facilitates non-linear reading - bridges across different media (web, app, print...) - creates open, flexible systems - slows down info ab...

Colors are representative of the emotions i myself associate to those colors 

Thinking about how to make the branches look nice and at the same time have a meaningful interpretation I came up with the idea of them being the length of the amount of conversations of that day  They're read from left to right A thought about this: how impactful is language and writing that our brains are wired to automatically read from left to right and make sense of it

I'm counting the number of interactions and thinking hoe to put them into the tree

 Very interesting facts I came across about the story of the EUC building and the artifacts displayed in this room. I posted this on EUC's instagram: Did you know there is a collection of archeological artefacts from the Museum of Rotterdam at EUC Room A? In this special room on the ground floor at EUC we keep these artefacts… some of which come from the 15th Century Agnietenklooster (St. Agnes Convent). The Agnietenklooster was, indeed, later transformed into the Prinsenhof (the residence of Willem of Orange during the Dutch 80 years Liberation War where he stayed briefly there in 1574), which is where the EUC building is located nowadays! Fun fact: Talking about the history of the EUC building, all the streets surrounding EUC have the names of all the establishments that were previously in the spot where EUC is now; namely: Prinsenhof, Botersloot and Nieuwemarkt.

 I was thinking on color coding for positive and negative interactions and represent them using a tree. Rather than representing the person itself I'm focusing only on whether it is a positive or negative interaction as this will impact your day and your levels of energy. Interactions can either energize you or drain you. They can make the tree flourish or rot.

Today I came across an instagram post about numerology so I decided to check my number and life path based on that. According to my birth date I'm a number 3. Allure.com (https://www.allure.com/story/numerology-how-to-calculate-life-path-destiny-number)  says this about Number 3s:   Communication is paramount for 3. Symbolically, 3 represents the output of two joined forces: It is the essence of creation. 3 is highly gifted at expression, seamlessly sharing innovative and pioneering concepts through art, writing, and oration. Your work inspires, motivates, and uplifts others, and 3 finds great joy making others smile. However, 3 is also known to be quite moody, and if 3 feels misunderstood, may withdraw entirely. The escapist tendencies of 3 are easily mitigated by practicing peaceful mindfulness: With such an active imagination, it’s important for 3 to find moments of quiet to reset, restore, and recharge. Personally, I quite not believe in this things but I find very in...

NS trains stopped running for the whole Sunday given a malfunction in the IT system. This is another example of how electric technologies are fundamental in our lives.
