Debate Debauchery

This was the first visualization assignment in my Art as System class. We were asked to create a visual translation of attributes from the 3rd presidential debate of 2004. We had to compare the different speakers word usage, frequency of use, and length of words.

My mapping omits the moderators lines, and compares the different qualities of the debate on a macro and micro scale by using a scatter plot format. The viewer can spin and zoom on the entire plot and analyze the ordered output for interesting trends.
