Work has encompassed billboards, taxi cabs, elaborate repeat patterns and embroidery prints for fashion, as well as typographic cover and editorial illustrations.Yehrin’s work is complex and intricate.

“Here is a Venn Diagram made with Twitter Venn that shows the relative frequency of tweets made about the recent deaths of three celebrities - Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Ed McMahon. This analysis was done around 7am EST today and the absolute numbers for tweets/day will certainly increase as more people in the US come online. I expect the proportions among the various combination regions to stay roughly the same.

A couple of points of interest:

– Celebrity interest ranked by number of tweets is Michael > Farrah > Ed with ratios 62:6:1
– Ed was mentioned together with both Michael and Farrah more often than he was by himself

To explore the data using the interactive application click on the image below or this link: Twitter Venn for #michaeljackson, #farrahfawcett, and #edmcmahon.”

About Jeff Clark:

“I have been a professional programmer for about twenty years and my current areas of interest include data mining, statistical analysis and visualization. I enjoy discovering the patterns in the apparent chaos of real life data and exploring new techniques for communicating what I discover in a visually compelling manner.

As you might expect from my interests described above I intend to publish here the results of any analytical projects I undertake as well as sharing with you my thoughts on any tools or techniques I learn something about. I will also write some entries pointing you towards some other places on the web related to these topics.” (read more).
