Still buzzing after speaking at LIVE Magazine in Bozar. Sharing stories of Brussels through maps and visuals in front of more than 4300 people was unforgettable. Grateful for the energy, the audience and the amazing team behind the show.

I love every little details of this work! 🤩

I was thinking about doing it like a coiled phone cable and animate it with a camera movement from the center.

So here it is: my dumb data viz experiment. 🍩

✔️ Solves the continuity problem
❌ Harder to spot patterns
❌ Hours are visually distorted

But hey… not everything has to be practical, sometimes it’s just fun! 😅 Also: how cool would it be to create a physical object like this?

I came across those flat climate charts where x = day of year & y = hour of day. They’re neat, but the "cut" at January & midnight always felt arbitrary. 🤔
So I thought… what if we used a torus? The perfect loop for time & seasons!

🍩 What if climate looked like a donut? 🌍
Here’s a bunch of cities turned into a sweet dataviz experiment.

🟡 → comfy zone
🔴 → hot
🔵 → cold

Why a donut? Let me explain 👇

📈 Can Belgium reach 80% employment by 2030?

We created an interactive visual storytelling piece showing how age, gender, and location shape job opportunities.

I tried using AI to make these hybrid animals look more realistic… and failed spectacularly. 🤦‍♂️

It kept messing up the proportions, swapping animal parts randomly, or just refusing to follow the sequence. Maybe I just suck at prompting? 😅

I recently revisited @ourworldindata.org after learning that @maxroser.bsky.social received honorary doctorates from KU Leuven & UC Louvain for his work in making global trends more accessible (Congrats for that!). This viz by @hannahritchie.bsky.social caught my eye—and inspired my own take on it!

Ever wondered what a country’s meat supply looks like? 🍗🐄🐖🐟

Here’s a breakdown of meat preferences in Japan, the US & Germany—visualized as hybrid animals! A fun (and slightly cursed) way to see food stats. 🧵👇

They say every true ceramist must make a porcelain teapot to earn their stripes... So, does this count? 🫖

Here’s a new dataviz experiment: exploring letter frequencies in different languages using variable fonts. The width of each letter stretches with its usage frequency. Not sure how I feel about the result—kind of cool, kind of meh. 🤔 What do you think? #dataviz #experiments

Here are the all-time most popular baby names in the US (male & female)! 👶 Each letter's height shows how trendy the name was over time. 📈✨

Check for yourself and search your name 👉 baby-names.jetpack.ai

I built a fun little app to explore baby name trends over time! 👶📈 Type your name, watch its popularity evolve, and create a unique visual. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

For what it’s worth: an alternative view on the 2024 U.S. Election Map 🗳️
This map scales states by electoral weight, preserving the U.S. shape for recognition. Voronoi-based shapes within each state show exact elector counts, with an animation transitioning from the traditional map to this cartogram
