WIRED describes the visualizations in GLEAMviz as ‘mesmerizing’

Yesterday WIRED posted an articleĀ featuringĀ the GLEAMviz data visualizations I worked on at ISI Foundation, describing themĀ as ‘mesmerizing’.

A screen grab of the concerned WIRED article.

Unfortunately the concerned graphics are incorrectly attributed. They are in factĀ the result of a collaborativeĀ effort by developers and scientists at both the ISI Foundation in Turin, Italy and the Mobs Lab atĀ Northeastern University, USA, with the support of both European and American research funding agencies.

To end on a positive note:Bill Gates seems to like our work, given his tweet and facebookĀ post.
