We will work further on this project and hope to present something at <a href="http://trouwamsterdam/nl/de-verdieping" rel="nofollow">De Verdieping</a> soon.

There are so many things you can derive data from when you are in a physical space, things as light, movements, paths, heat, speed, colors - you name it. There is loads of information that can be used for a data visualization... I think this can be a very (VERY) interesting project... @krhoustaliov Nice quote, I wrote a post called ‘When form carries information’ which touches the same mindset I think.

So there's a lot of data already hidden in architecture, but not it's always clear how to read it. Manhattan is a built chart, where the building height is in a direct relation to the ground cost.

Possibly more so in terms of convergence of different disciplines within the world of statistics (owing to the fact that this is essentially the language of the computer) than necessarily proposing a new architectural or formal model itself. But for me this is the real beauty of the phrase, in that it opens up a discussion to be had on the many implied issues of resemblance that data allows for...
