Aaron Koblin recently gave a lecture at the 2009 OFFF in Lisbon.

While it was a theme that seemed to be running through the OFF conference this wasn’t what he was going to talk about. He said while it’s important to be aware of the extreme abundance of data it’s ironic that his job is to use it. With the vast volume of data he argued that we can make insights that we never could have seen before. He said:

“Data tells stories about our lives.”

PFSK has gathered videos of the various visualizations he discussed, and transcribed most of his talk online.
