Very excited that the “Climate—Conflict—Vulnerability Index (CCVI)” was unveiled by @ABaerbock at the Climate Security Conference Berlin.

🚨 3 days left to submit! We’re thrilled to announce that Moritz Stefaner will be joining us as a featured speaker! His work blends beauty + insight like no other. Don’t miss this chance to share your work where art meets impact. 🗓️ Due July 22 (AOE) 🔗

Since 2008, CAN has defied big tech’s dominance, nurturing a global network of artists, designers, educators, hackers & makers—proving alternative networks not only exist, but flourish!

It's clear dataviz is at an inflection point. Essays by @sxywu and @moritz_stefaner have been thought-provoking in many ways, but haven't discussed dataviz from a business perspective. Let me know what you think!

Warum schneidet die #AfD in #Hamburg so schlecht ab? Ganz einfach: weil der Ausländeranteil so hoch ist. Diese Korrelation sieht man in ganz 🇩🇪. Wer mit Ausländern zusammenlebt, weiß: Die ausländerfeindliche Hetze & Panikmache der AfD ist genau das: reine Panikmache. Mehr nicht.

Yesterday was the 10th Bremen #dataviz meetup 🎉 Thanks to Tom Duscher and Ekaterina Burakova for the inspiring talks on how to communicate geoscience 🌏 and chemistry 🧬 visually! We’re back in March, join us on https://t.co/Ji6YTqJI0n @moritz_stefaner

Vier Monate lang haben wir auf TikTok mit einem "roten Telefon" und einem "blauen Telefon" den US-Wahlkampf verfolgt – aus Sicht der republikanischen und der demokratischen Sphäre. So unterschiedlich sieht deren Welt aus. https://t.co/sDlHiHHqCY

Habt Ihr Ideen für Installationen, Performances, Workshops oder andere Kunstformen, die Ihr gern für den Chaos Communication Congress, vom 27.–30. Dezember, realisieren möchtet? #38C3 – Call for Art

Die deutschsprachige Keynote mit der Ankündigung des CCVI durch @ABaerbock findet sich übrigens hier:

I am excited to see what’s happening in the final stretch of the project in 2025! We made a conscious decision to publish early so that there is time for evaluation and iteration — I am eager to hear your feedback and thoughts! Check it out at →

Finally, none of this could be done without our counterparts at the Foreign Office who make sure we stay on track and our work is visible and relevant.

You might think all this sounds like a big and complex task, and you are not wrong! But luckily I am supported by top-notch dataviz experts and svelte.js gurus like @laessr, @flaviogortana and Jan Johannes, who do much of the heavy lifting in design and code.

In parallel, we also work on a data design language, custom UI components, map styles, … so that our work can re-used and adapted in many ways beyond our personal, immediate involvement.

My team at https://t.co/FJB6F6pyFe supports the research project with data visualization and communications, and develop custom applications and information products to make the research results usable and decision-relevant for the Federal Foreign Office and its partners.
