Another scatter plot comparing the rankings of theories of consciousness in Google search hits vs Google Scholar search hits, as a rough indicator of discrepancies between public and scholarly/scientific interest.

A similar connected scatter plot that focuses on theories in the Materialism category, showing their subcategory, order of magnitude, degree brain matters, scholarly/scientific interest, complexity, and connections among them.

In this connected scatter version, x-axis positions represent order of magnitude (e.g., quantum level, cellular level, neuronal level, neural networks, whole brain, whole body, extended mind, universe); y-axis positions represent level on a materialism-idealism scale.

A force-directed graph with alignment connections. Colors represent the categories to which the consciousness theories belong. Sizes of the shapes represent scholarly interest, the number of Google Scholar hits. Number of edges of a shape represents the theory’s complexity.

Partner thought her mint candies were covered with mold. Under microscope (100–400×) they looked like crystals to me and after some googling I concluded these were menthol crystals grown thanks to humidity and heat. She still didn’t want to eat them.

And this is a static version that shows the absolute and proportional values for provinces in parallel.

This version uses the absolute numbers to show the total population growth since 1927; each dot represents 3000 people.

I visualized how the population distribution by provinces in Türkiye has changed since 1927 (not showing the total population growth in this one). Dots are distributed uniformly within province boundaries; they don’t claim to show settlement areas. Thread↓

People are making fun of the handwritten “Covid-19” but I think it’s a wise typographic choice that visually supports their claim that SARS-CoV-2 is human-made – almost like a signature. So maybe the photo layout choice that suggests Trump leaked it is also intentional...

Still, I think that this philosopher-based method is not as informative as my sentence-based one. To make it a bit more functional in this regard, I added customized links to the detailed sentence-based views of the main visualization in the boxes that show up when you hover/click on philosophers.

It's a dynamic system capable of generating thousands of visualizations via filterings by period, connection type (agreement/disagreement), names, branches, and tags. (And you can use these filters in combinations.)

I’ve been reading some history of philosophy of law lately so I’ve added positivists like John Austin, Hans Kelsen, and HLA Hart, along with sentences on natural law by Aquinas, as a start. (More to come, incl. Fuller, Finnis, Dworkin, Raz.) Here for Hart:
