These signals tend to be patterned energy, such as TV broadcasts and songs. Artifacts are recombined matter, such as bricks, BIC pens and microchips. Some of the more beautiful types of human work are ones that are both signal and artifact. But then, physicists may argue that distinctions between matter and energy are ultimately an illusion. In this web log, we will point out, talk a little about and sometimes illustrate some compelling and just plain interesting signals and artifacts. Until we know better, all of these will be from Earth.

Trulia Snapshot just launched! Snapshot is another visualization tool built by Stamen for the real estate search engine Trulia. Tom Carden and Ryan Alexander built the amazing interface. I worked on design. Snapshot is a real estate image browser. It shows an alternate magazine-like view of Trulia’s image data of homes all over the U.S.. It is now part of Trulia’s growing list of visualization tools, featured in a new section called TruliaExplore. Trulia Hindsight is also featured here.
