Aaron Koblin, the talented Creative Director that leads "Data Arts Team" in the "Google Creative Lab", a team who initiated the Google Data Viz challenge and just launched their WebGL globe, known from ground-breaking works like Flight Patterns, Bicycle Built for 2,000, eCloud, New York Talk Exchange, Hand-Drawn Sheep Market and Radio-head's 3D Laser Scanner Video Clip has recently given a TED talk, summarizing and demonstrating many of his works. You can watch all this, and much more, in less than 20 minutes below.
Artist Aaron Koblin takes vast amounts of data — and at times vast numbers of people — and weaves them into stunning visualizations. From elegant lines tracing airline flights to landscapes of cell phone data, from a Johnny Cash video assembled from crowd-sourced drawings to the “Wilderness Downtown” video that customizes for the user, his works brilliantly explore how modern technology can make us more human.
