Digital Urban: A Photoshop for Graphs - Introducing Gephi - 4 views

  •  
    "The last 12 months have seen the release of vast amounts of publicly available data, which has led to a bit of conundrum on how to easily visualise complex networks. What is needed is a 'Photoshop for Graphs' which is exactly what Gephi is. In short, Gephi is an interactive visualization and exploration platform for all kinds of networks and complex systems, dynamic and hierarchical graphs - the movie is great: "

    Have you started using it, Wildcat? Looks great to me! I'm wondering if I can get into Twine and make a graph of all that we've done there? Any thoughts?

    no, not yet. no time.. but as soon as possible will do, tackling the twine thingy becomes a life project..:-) yeah but I was thinking on the same lines, to somehow graphically represent the network activity we have had on twine. if you do use it pls report. thks

    Me too; just too busy, and the Twine thing is hard, like you say, but, Gephi looks very interesting to me as well. Thanks for this, Wildcat!

Urban Velo - Bicycle Culture on the Skids - 0 views

  •  
    Green-er MACHINES By Marci Blackman Photos by Ed Glazar In a four hundred square foot studio in Red Hook, the hinterland of Brooklyn, a botanist, an engineer, anthropologist and bike messenger mental away the hours putting the finishing touches on a bicycle that could save the world. Okay, maybe not the whole world. Perhaps not even a block of it. And twenty-somethings Justin Aguinaldo and Sean Murray would probably never refer to themselves as an anthropologist and botanist even though bike messenger Aguinaldo majored in anthropology in college, and Murray once taught the plant science to children with learning disabilities at the Churchill School in Manhattan. Mostly, along with Marty Odlin of Columbia University's Earth Institute (our engineer), they are a brainy trio of bike geeks who-like the rest of us-get excited over things like black-rimmed wheels with matching black spokes and black high flange hubs, gear ratios, and lightweight composites. And none of them is ever likely to profess that he could save the world. But the bicycle the three are developing along with the streamlining of its manufacturing process could help put a dent in a few of our problems: rural world poverty, health and well-being, greenhouse gases. Plus, as a bonus, they might even win the awesome wicked cool award while doing it.
