  • Data Visualization Report -Kylee

    I chose to analyze https://groups.uni-paderborn.de/graphic-literature/gncorpus/charts.php. This visualization is groups of bar graphs showing different statistics about authors, illustrators, and books. (There are a couple bar charts in the website and a few continuous graphs but for the analysis I’m going to focus on the bar charts.) According to the text, these graphs are showing discrete…

  • Visualization Assignment 3 – Emily Murphy

    The data visualisation that I have chosen is the GNC, I Chose “Authorship By Genre”. I chose this type of visualisation as it is represented on a bar chart only, it would have been more helpful if it had other graphics. To the right of the chart there is a legend. Which contains data that…

  • Visualization assignment -Jason Shockley

    I chose the Wikidata: Wikiproject PCC Wikidata Pilot/ San Diego State University/ Comic Arts Project. This is an example of a network diagram. This type of visualization usually shows relevant data on the specific task. This is a good visualization of data on a particular project. This data is all confined to one page with…

  • Martin Data Visualization

    The Wikidata query I chose was “Causes of death of fictional characters.” It is a bubble graph which I found interesting. It is visually nice because the most common aspects are the largest circles in the graft, so it is easy to identify. The less common aspects are smaller. Ballistic trauma and injury are the…

The graph is comparing the illustrators of comics countries of origin. This type of visualization typically is used for comparing and looking for correlations between mediums. According to the information visualization chapter these charts were used in, “​​Early accounting systems for tracking inventory and also…

  • Visualization – Nicole Burney

    The query showing Marvel superheroes and their enemies provides information for the characters of Marvel and shows dynamics of characters. It is a table with four columns. The first column shows the wikidata ID for the character, the second column shows the characters name, the third shows the characters enemies, and the fourth column shows…

  • Information Visualization: Consideration of the Top 50 Publishers

    Information Visualization: Consideration of the Top 50 Publishers Out of the Visualizations provided by GNC, one that really jumped out was the one that showed the likings of the “Top 50 publishers.” Something that often peaks interest quickly is the idea of rank listings as they often give viewers biased listings of the best sort…

  • Author’s Age per Title

    Types of visualization   This visualization is a dot plot and illustrates the age of authors (Y-axis) and the year of publication (x-axis). This type of visualization is highly versatile and can be used in many instances, as it can show multiple points on each axis without interference. The above graph allows the reader to…

  • Hello world! — A note from Dr. Wigard

    Welcome to the RHCS Digital Exhibit on Comic Strips. This will be the home page for the “Intro to Digital Humanities” students’ virtual work for Fall 2023. It is under construction, and purposefully, in flux. We will change it as needed. New pages will be added so that each student has, at least, one page…
