Sometimes when you are playing with visualizations you run across something that captures your attention. This happened when I was looking at the over 3,000 counties in the United States, using population density.
In effect, the image you are looking at above is the United States.
I normally don’t share visualizations simply for their artistic beauty but this one just compelled me to save it and share.
Just to be feel momentarily artistic, I shall name this accidental art piece “America The Unintentionally Beautiful”.

I have been around IT since I was in high school (running a customized BBS, and hacking) and am not the typical person that finds one area of interest at work; I have designed databases, automated IT processes, written code at the driver level and all the way up to the GUI level, ran an international software engineering team, started an e-commerce business that generated over $1M, ran a $5B product marketing team for one of the largest semiconductor players in the world, traveled as a sales engineer for the largest storage OEM in the world, researched and developed strategy for one of the top 5 enterprise storage providers, and traveled around the world helping various companies make investment decisions in startups. I also am extremely passionate about uncovering insights from any data set. I just like to have fun by making a notable difference, influencing others, and to work with smart people.
