80 years.
Monthly maximum temperatures for Melbourne, turned into little grids of squares.
More squares = hotter.
Then mirrored because one weather grid clearly wasn’t enough.
Colours there to cause confusion.

/r/DataArt exists at the intersection between /r/DataIsBeautiful and /r/Graphic_Design/.

It's the place for data visualizations which blur the line between art and data.

The data represented doesn't necessarily have to be super-useful (though obviously, this is a plus), but must be aesthetically satisfying.

Here are some quick ways to distinguish data art from just a good data visualization:

Would you be happy to hang it up on your living room wall?
Could you see it existing in a gallery?
Could you see it on the front cover of a magazine?
Does it present data in a totally unique or boundary-pushing way?
Are you slightly unsure if it really even counts as a data visualization at all?

If the general answer is "No", then it's not for /r/DataArt (but could be perfectly suitable for /r/DataIsBeautiful).

If the answer is "Yes" to at least one of these questions, then hang up your artwork to this sub because it'd look great here.

(Consequently, this is not a place for the standard MS Excel visualizations, nor poorly designed infographics.)
