DATA VISUALISATION: NEW YORK TALK EXCHANGE




'New York Talk Exchange' was a data visualisation project shown at MOMA in New York in 2008. It illustrates the global exchange of information in real time by visualizing volumes of long distance telephone and IP (Internet Protocol) data from AT&T, that flow between New York and cities around the world. 

It shows how the city of New York connects to other cities, which cities NY has the strongest ties with and how those relationships shift with time. It also shows how the rest of the world reaches into the neighborhoods of New York.
