Iteration 1
Using Microsoft Excel to Visualize Tables Containing Numbers

• Microsoft Excel is a data processing and visualization tool that allows rule-based manipulation of numerical data.
• Various charts are produced throughout the process, with some resulting in unexpected and visually interesting outcomes.
• Interesting visuals are identified based on emergent patterns, contrast, rhythm, and structural variation generated from numbers.

Objective

Through iterative experimentation, this project explores whether Microsoft Excel can function as a generative visual tool by controlling numerical parameters.

Workflow

1. Experiment with combinations of parameters B and C, generating line graphs as the primary evaluation metric.
2. Further explore parameters A and D based on promising outcomes from the first stage.
3. Generate alternative chart types for iterations that demonstrate strong visual structures.
