Some of the back pages of the Guardian have a lot of little stories, so trying to get them all to sit in the same place meant I had to cluster some items. That's a great pic by the way! Nice to see the work 'in action'. :) Hey Jason,

The clusters mean the articles are all on the same page, in the same subject. Some of the back pages of the Guardian have a lot of little stories, so trying to get them all to sit in the same place meant I had to cluster some items.

That’s a great pic by the way! Nice to see the work ‘in action’. :)

I've got this one hung in my office, check it out: http://flickr.com/photos/jasonrobb/2696406190/ I've got to know: What do the clusters mean? They're all on the same page? I'm having trouble explaining this to people that pass by. =) Thanks! Hey Dave,

A spoke is like a spoke on a bicycle wheel, and there's 26 of them, one for each page. They're invisible, but evenly spread out around the circle. Each story is plotted on a spoke, which is the page of that story. Majed,

Thanks! A spoke is like a spoke on a bicycle wheel, and there’s 26 of them, one for each page. They’re invisible, but evenly spread out around the circle. Each story is plotted on a spoke, which is the page of that story.

The concentric circles are news categories, expanding from least to most total word counts per category. The individual word counts of each story are plotted on the corresponding concentric circle, on a spoke of the corresponding page. The colours on this piece are vibrant and the circular image clashing with the straight stripe adds a new feel to the piece. Taking what could be a boring mass of news item and turning these into something wonderful to look at.

I've had a couple of requests for these to be available to buy so I think I might have to look into it. They do look excellent when printed I have to say! Glad you like!
