On this episode we discuss data visualization as the new path and frontier for graphic design, and how graphic design has treated communication of information in the past. We also discuss the definition of graphic design, focusing on Meggs’ quote, and specifically the idea of designers creating artifacts that document human experience.

We unveil our final refined mark and discuss the process we took to get there, and finally we answer a question and review some previous discussions from our spec work episode, 15.

As always, we ask for your comments and love hearing from you. Feel free to call, send in an mp3 or text comment to readbetweentheleading@gmail.com, or find us on twitter @rbtlshow.

“the essence is to give order to information, form to ideas, expression and feeling to artifacts that document human experience.” - Phillip Meggs
