Info-Arch: Charette results

Some images of my brainstorming corner:





as far as possible sorting methods, here are the ones from the list above sorted by LATCH.

Location
-where i saw the band play
-acquisition


Alphabetical
-band name a to z

Time
-acquisition

Category
-color
-whether its a local band or a nationally known band
-genres
-genders of the band members
-novelty type/style of type
-condition
-attachments to the band (whether I have a relationship with the members or not)
-if i made any of them


Hierarchy
-presence of type, type and image, or just image
-background/foreground hierarchy


I have chosen to sort my buttons by color,


type/type & image/image,


and foreground/background hierarchy.


------------------------------------------------------

Some of my ideas for infographics are as follows:

mapping/comparison-frequency of color used (can function as micro and macro)
process-layers of a button (micro)
mapping-development of the button over time (macro)
process-how buttons are made (micro)

All your infograph ideas have good potential. I would also recommend you look up into your LATCH classifications as well. You have some there that could represent micro level infographs.

Think about the various processes and principles used in graphic design that could be represented as diagrams or statistical comparisons.

E.g.
• Production
• Color processes
• Comparing typefaces
• Letterform anatomy
• History of Iconography (on a particular button)
