Rex-a-Sketch
Over the course of 2013, I’ll be posting lots of sketches here. Not sure of what. Don’t even know the style. Starting out with random drawings of every day things with some copy attached. I’m using the iPad App called Paper to create them. It won’t necessarily be an every day thing. But some days, I will post lots of them. Just an experiment and exercise.

[Updated on 11.13.2012 - While I would like to delete this post and pretend it never happened, I’ll confess: Everything you read from here on is wrong. I showed extremely poor judgment and  wishful thinking on my part to think that a scandal can be “handled.”  It was sheer fantasy to believe someone could actually handle a scandal the appropriate way, which is to say, any way...

If there is a Pulitzer Prize for interactive graphics, NYTImes.com’s election-related maps deserves it. This “how voters shifted” from 2008-2012 is mesmerizing, a term I’ve never before used to describe an election map.

How Natural Disasters Can be Like Twitter
[This is also posted on RexBlog.com, however, there are some “load” issues there so I decided to post it here also.] How we learn about, or even how we experience, major disasters spread over large regions, can be like Twitter: Snippets of truth, opinions, rumors, lies, inspiration, whining, complaining, heroism, sacrifice, brilliance, ignorance — a collection of ”small...
