Creative Coding | Data Visualization | Generative Design

uncertainty sketches is part of the Visualizing Uncertainty research project led by Aaron Hill at Parsons School of Design. The interdisciplinary project draws inspiration from the fine arts to think about new ways of representing uncertainty in data visualization. My group was tasked with creating the design moodboard and initial p5.js sketches using points, lines, and planes to create generative animations to effectively and intuitively convey uncertainty in data visualization.

a screenshot of the Are.na board that includes all of the design precedents found during research a GIF of moving rectangles in a grid format created using p5.js to portray uncertainty. a GIF of three dots exuding particles created using p5.js to portray uncertainty a GIF of a dot flashing and shaking created using p5.js to portray uncertainty a GIF of multiple flashing dots created using p5.js to portray uncertainty a GIF of the cursor generating dot particles that gravitate towards the center of the canvas created using p5.js to portray uncertainty a GIF of moving dot particles in a blob shape created using p5.js to portray uncertainty a GIF of a moving blob made of thin lines created using p5.js to portray uncertainty

This project was created in collaboration with Benny Zhang.
