Real-World Tufte Graphics - Experiments With Processing.js

Monday, 04 January 2010

This is a Processing.js implementation of one of Edward Tufte's graphics, as demonstrated earlier by one of my favourite datavis blogs: Juice Analytics.

The graphics below is not from an image file. The graphics is drawn on to a canvas element.

Note: View source of this page to see the javascript+processingjs code which renders the graphics.

Currently, only Firefox 3.0 beta editions and latest webkit enabled browsers can render this graphic.

Update 4/Jan/2009: the text does not show up on Safari and Chrome (webkit browsers)

Source code: tufte_processing.js
