Science maps

Identification and analyses of rhythm in large datasets requires a visualisation techniques for making results comprehensive. Katy Börner, Exhibit Curator and Director of the Cyberinfrastructure for Network Science Center, has started the Places and Spaces project over 10 years ago. Every year she invites academics and artists to visualise and conceptualise new ways of understanding complex data. This has resulted in an impressive exhibition that travels the world. For the research into rhythm this work is interesting for being able to better understand how large datasets can, and do not in some cases, communicate.
