CART214: Infographics

Option 1:

Number of scientific and technical journal articles by country and either number of universities, overall population or GDP.

The approach would be one of information texture, seeing the information added to world knowledge by number of people involved.
This is mostly if Option 2 doesn’t fly.

Option 2:

Using my own dataset on CART/COMP classes, studying the number of classes offered and number of pre-requisites, by time of year offered. Highlighting classes useful in computation arts, but difficult to schedule or fulfil requirements for.

* not counting: Independent Study, Internships and Special Topics

Three options of examining data.

The first bar-graph would be expanded to examine scheduling/requirement eccentricities, focussing on peculiarity and humour.
The first of the three sketches focuses on options and possibilities outside of the core classes in CART. The second focuses on the increasing number of non-core classes required over time in the program. The third takes a critical look at the non-core requirements in Cart and Comp over three years, highlighting the most potentially useful computer science classes to computation arts.
