Since the moment we are born we are exposed to images all around us. The increased exposure to visual context has helped humans develop the capacity of understanding what these visuals mean and the message they carry. In this video, we learn about data visualization and the components that constitute it. Something that really grabbed my attention was how significantly important visuals have become in our society. They help give meaning to things that have always been ambiguous or too complicated to put into words. It is through this means that humans can rapidly see, grasp, translate, and understand terms and ideas that were once unknown or difficult to understand, like numbers that are too big for us to even imagine. This can be seen in our day to day when we use google maps to move and travel to places we have never been. Another example is how images are used to portray data on the amount of people that fly on a daily basis or the number of users in the internet around the world. These data images bring knowledge and facilitate our understanding of the unseen, unknown, or complex.
