Abstract:

This short pictorial paper offers a succinct overview and discussion on an drastically alternative perspective of providing data-driven tools for the visualization of personally relevant data. We describe the notion of information bombing, the situated, playful and opportunistic approach to share information in the public realm. We thus present a wide range of related and self-initiated works in this realm, in order to demonstrate the rich possibilities of exposing and externalizing situated data in existing social, cultural and physical environments, which are the actual source of such data.
