Its been a while - visualisation stuff

Not sure why life has got the better of me, but hey ho!
occasional readers (for there can be none other given the paucity of posts) will understand I have an interest and passion for visualisations

The Importance of Visual Literacy
today, in an effort to express myself I found an update on the visual literacies website and also stumbled on this blog while trying to work out the right way to represent some tricky information

http://wilgengebroed.nl/visual-literacy-should-be-equally-important-as-textual-literacy-in-our-educational-systems/

on top of that The good folk at http://www.visual-literacy.org/ have got some tutorials online. I shall certainly be pointing all my project and phd students and the one on Business visualisations. The general principles outlined there are, I think, just right for an undergraduate student project and for first year post grad work too.
