This paper talks about how new media artists have used data and information in their works. It also discusses the distinction between data and information. In short, information is organized data while data itself is a raw collection of statistics to be used for analysis. Some artists agree with this distinction; for example, The Listening Post by Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin is an example of a work that utilizes information under the definition described in the paper. On the other hand, Lisa Jevbratt’s work 1:1 complies to a different notion of information. In this work, Jevbratt visualizes data in a way much different than traditional data visualizations. Jevbratt simply converts data into pixel colors. In this way, the visualization does not display information as is typical for data vis. Instead, the “information” is possibly more obfuscated than in its original data form.
