I dedicate a handful of hours a week to what I call “t + l – think and learn” and that could resemble what most companies call R & D or R + D + i.
It is a must to stay behind and more in a profession as linked to technology as mine.
It is a frustrating process in many occasions because things do not come to the first, nor to the second nor the third, … but it is part of learning.
And, above all, it is something enriching and rewarding because, when it comes out … the joy is immense.
Last weekend I was experimenting with D3.
D3.js (or simply D3 by the acronym of Data-Driven Documents is a JavaScript library to produce, from data, dynamic and interactive graphics in web browsers. It makes use of well-established technologies such as SVG, HTML5, and CSS.
I have done a test to interactively visualize the evolution (number of performances in concerts) of U2 songs over the years.
I have processed the data in R and injected it directly to D3. It is not an excessively intuitive language but, with patience and dedication, it ends up coming out.
