Evolving Software Tools: Creative vs. Standardized

Welcome to episode 6 of season 5 of Explore Explain, a long-form video and podcast series all about data visualisation design.

In this latest episode, I am delighted to welcome Michael Brenner (Head of Creative at Data4Change), Sarah Slobin (Visual Editor, Reuters), and Jon Schwabish (Senior Fellow, Urban Institute). In a show I've titled ‘The Tools of Our Trade’ we explore the substantial matter of data visualisation technology, explaining how we feel about the current state of data viz tools and how they assist us as data visualisation professionals. We look at how today’s tool landscape has been shaped over time, which options we most value, and the capabilities we feel are possibly lacking.

As well as listening to this show, you can watch the video of this conversation. Head over to Youtube and visit the Explore Explain channel.
