There are a few different versions of this text in circulation about the world’s statistics. I found the data very striking and neatly summarises the world that we live in. So I used information graphics to re-tell the story in another creative way. I designed a set of 20 posters, which contain most of the information. I used simple vector graphics that related to a statistic in order to present the information in the simplest and most accessible way.</i> tag:metafilter.com,2009:site.80781 Sat, 11 Apr 2009 22:05:18 -0800 art beautiful design graphic information Ng Toby fourcheesemac http://www.metafilter.com/39705/Shh%2DIm%2Dhunting%2Dwabbits <a href="http://savetoby.com">An online psycho</a> (or entrepreneurial genius?) says he's holding a bunny, named Toby, hostage unless charitable animal lovers donate $50,000 to his paypal account.
