What impresses me most about these ancient living beings is the fact that they have experienced, perceived events that for us are distant tales, learned from school and books. Monumental Trees are, in fact, “living witnesses” of that past; they are precious and priceless, and we should recognise and preserve them as such. “Se solo gli alberi potessero parlare” (If Only Trees Could Talk) is a poster I designed for a Data Visualisation contest, with the intention of portraying this deep connection between their history and ours. Thanks to @internoverde and the incredible team of @studionilodesign (also the contest commission @stegue88, @tiz.alocci) for that craaazy day. (Aaaaand, the poster reached the third place in the contest and I’m still so amazed about it)"

Emanuele Pizzuti on Instagram: "This is my submission for this month's dataviz challenge. Theme: stress triggers. And this time again, the challenge forced me to analyse myself and get to know myself. I realised that stress is a bundle of things, that it is difficult to categorise it into 'moments', because each trigger expands, spreads, influences others and our approach to our day, and many times it has physical consequences. I also realised that it is easily confused/misunderstood with the feeling of anxiety. The graphic constraint this month was to use circular shapes. The problem is that I have always associated this shape with tranquillity, with midfullness. My solution was to take the circle and break it, distort it. This month's viz is not a visualisation in the traditional sense of the word, I am aware that it is not properly readable (which is what interests me most when I design visualisations), but June was an intense and confusing, emotionally challenging month, in which the data collection itself was complex. 😮‍💨 Besides, I had been thinking about dipping my hands back into tools like processing and p5.js for quite some time. 👨‍💻 Thanks to @ta_daaata and @alenka_gucek for forcing me to these stressfull self analysis 😅❤️ Hope you like it! #journaldataviz #datavizchallenge #communicationdesign #informationdesign #datavisualization #dataviz #smalldata #datahumanism #graphicdesign #visualdesign #datadesign #dailydata #personaldata #bujo #bulletjournaltracker #datavizsociety @datavizsociety @journal_dataviz_challenge"
