The document discusses information visualization and examples of visualizing large datasets. It presents examples such as the Billion Dollar O-Gram showing US government spending, Minard's map of Napoleon's 1812 Russian campaign losses, Facebook relationships across the globe, and ambient displays that show data through interactive media facades and public screens. It argues that information visualization leverages human abilities to make sense of complex data and that interactive media has potential for exploring growing amounts of data, which are spreading beyond computers into environments.
