new work of et and adam schwartz on quilts a variety of small multiples that show 100 to 500 images on a single screen adam built a free chrome app that composes sorts and edits the results from google images for now the idea is to search a topic on google images and then recompose sort and edit those images into a quilt of images dealing with your topic our chrome app does the composing sorting and editing the obvious extension is to be able to go into any large database pull out the relevant images and organize into a quilt since the editing sequence is done locally in the browser and the images are drawn from a unique confection of google images there may be cryptographic possibilities here as well the resulting quilt is scanned by the viewer who often learns more about than topic than from conventional search results for many quilts topics include subatomic particles feynman diagrams muybridge cezanne klee sorting algorithms picasso and for a quilt of quilts the quilts of gee s bend see http imagequilts com i first posted some simple quilts during a frantic weekend flurry several months ago at of all places my twitter account https twitter com edwardtufte the verge recently did a nice piece on imagequilts with many quilts master statistician weaves google images into visual quilts a visionary statistician shares a free tool for data visualization edward tufte is a master of his field the celebrated statistician is an information design and data visualization expert known for his many writings on the subject including envisioning information and visual explanations which pioneered the idea that visuals were of the upmost importance when communicating ideas and information a vocal opponent against broadly used visualization tools like powerpoint tufte discourages the use of decorative visuals when displaying data arguing that they can distort and editorialize the facts his writings have informed and inspired a generation of statisticians and designers alike and now he s collaborated with software engineer adam schwartz to share a free web app with the rest of us imagequilts is a chrome extension that acts as a plug in for google images after installing the app you ll see a new button appear above your image search results prompting you to make an imagequilt clicking on the button jumps you into an intuitive interface that lets you build a collage based on the results of your search there are lots of customization options you can change the image size and order zoom into images remove images and also choose between grayscale inverted or full color displays after tinkering around with the settings and removing irrelevant images you re left with a coherent and hopefully attractive collage that represents your chosen subject there are some great examples of how powerful imagequilts can be over at the plug in s website but we ve put a few of their examples together with a few of our own below as you ll notice some are more successful than others but when choosing an architect designer or artist imagequilts does a superb job of capturing their essence imagequilts is a great tool for summarizing and organizing visual data a viewer scanning over for example an artist s imagequilt will quickly understand what they re about tufte suggests that viewers will often learn more about a topic from imagequilts than conventional search results frank gehry pablo picasso dieter rams feynman diagrams vladimir putin scrap metal candy subatomic particle collision topics art e t science comments mackenzie says november 1 2013 at 1 24 pm is there a way to share or copy the resulting image i ve made some that i really like and want to keep et response use screen capture which is surely available in most operating systems screen capture is enormously useful and is a good way to move images around as well here are os x instructions from macfixit mac os x has a built in ability to capture screenshots using simple keyboard commands with shots saved to the desktop as picture 1 2 3 etc this feature can be exceptionally useful for generating documents or sending system configurations to friends and colleagues although most users are aware of the basic functionality of the screen capture feature there are some hidden features that can really enhance the usability of screenshots using screen capture here is a list of the known features of screen capture using key commands to take screen shots shift command 3 the basic screenshot will take an image of the full screen shift command 4 the selection mode will take a shot of the area outlined by dragging the cursor shift command 4 then tapping space the window mode will take a shot of the highlighted window shift command 4 dragging then holding space drag mode will allow the current sized box to be relocated shift command 4 then options the center mode will resize the box focusing on the center shift command 4 then shift the axis lock will resize while locking the movement to one axis determined by initial mouse movement pressing escape before releasing the mouse in any mode will cancel the screenshot holding control in any mode ie control shift command 3 will output the results to the clipboard instead of to a file allowing the contents to immediately be pasted into documents changing the format with screen capture by default screencapture outputs files in png format however several other common formats are supported users can change the file format by entering the following command in the terminal defaults write com apple screencapture type type in this command type is one of the following gif jpg tiff pdf psd or png using grab before screencapture was implemented in mac os x 10 2 x apple supplied a screenshot utility called grab which is still available in leopard users can do all the functions of screencapture in grab but the best thing about grab is the option for timed screen captures this allows users to take screenshots after a 10 second delay allowing them to set up their screens as desired and be in the act of working when the screenshot is taken additional features of grab are to set specific cursor types or remove the mouse cursor altogether during the shot p o box 430 cheshire ct 06410 800 822 2454 or 1 203 272 9187 monday friday 10am 4pm est tufte graphicspress com about books online course hogpen hill farms
