Data about disabled students, in a tool they could not use
Work — read the piece
- Meant to show
- A blind parent reading her own child's data at home: one of the people these reports are about, who had rarely been in the room when they were designed.
- Asked for
- A Latina woman's fingers reading a refreshable braille display at a kitchen table, a child's drawing taped to the wall behind her, an unopened letter by her elbow
- Drawn with (analogous)
#255f90#25358a#d7bb61
Why these three
Two neighbors reading as one family, and a third opposite them to argue with it.
- SeedSHA-256 of
idea-data-reporting, which is the same every time and different for every piece. - Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 207°.
- GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks analogous, which adds 0°, 35°, 190°.
- WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — +0.6°, −11.2°, +9.1° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.
- Result
#255f90207° at 74% saturation, 56% value#25358a231° at 73% saturation, 54% value#d7bb6146° at 55% saturation, 84% value
Saturation never drops below 72% and value never below 78%, which is what keeps a hue reading as the color it was chosen to be rather than as a dark. More on how these are made.
