A+ Imaginative cutting edge visualizations=content driven by real scientists (particle physics, astronomy, medical live data, acoustics, biophysics). And by Pixar, Rox Chast, xkcd. In video, note good layout, multiplicity, quantification #MachineLearning #dataviz #Datascience https://twitter.com/frankwilczek/status/1530027630031945749
