AIGA, the professional association for design, is the premier place for design—to discover it, discuss it, understand it, appreciate it, be inspired by it. It is the place designers turn to first to exchange ideas and information, participate in critical analysis, and research and advance education and ethical practices. AIGA sets the national agenda for the role of design in its economic, social, political, cultural and creative contexts.
Founded in 1914, AIGA remains the oldest and largest professional membership organization for design. AIGA now represents more than 22,000 design professionals, educators and students through national activities and local programs developed by 64 chapters and 240 student groups.
AIGA serves designers with five critical functions:
* Information
* Communication
* Inspiration
* Validation
* Representation

With some effort, this could work as another tool for social network analysis. Yet another instance where journalists would do well to study other disciplines and their methods.

GoMiner™ is a tool for biological interpretation of 'omic' data – including data from gene expression microarrays. Omic experiments often generate lists of dozens or hundreds of genes that differ in expression between samples, raising the question
What does it all mean biologically?
To answer this question, GoMiner leverages the Gene Ontology (GO) to identify the biological processes, functions and components represented in these lists. Instead of analyzing microarray results with a gene-by-gene approach, GoMiner classifies the genes into biologically coherent categories and assesses these categories. The insights gained through GoMiner can generate hypotheses to guide additional research.

Resource: Mathematics Illuminated
Professionally produced lectures on math basics.
-
A video course for high school teachers and college level instruction; 13 half-hour video programs, online text, course guide, and Web site; graduate credit available
Mathematics Illuminated is a 13-part multimedia learning resource for adult learners and high school teachers in math and other disciplines. The series explores major themes in the field of mathematics, from mankind's earliest study of prime numbers to the cutting edge mathematics used to reveal the shape of the universe. Rather than a series of problems to be solved, mathematics is presented as play we engage in to answer deep questions that are relevant in our world today. Mathematics also provides us with a powerful language for uncovering and describing phenomena in the world around us. The groundbreaking videos, interactive Web exploration, text materials, and group activities included in Mathematics Illuminated reveal the secrets and hidden delights of the ever-evolving world of mathematics.
Produced by Oregon Public Broadcasting. 2008.

Visualization Lab | Socializing Visualization
-
Abstract
The immersive and compelling nature of many social visualizations arise not only from the nature and presentation of the data under consideration, but also from the social interactions, both implicit and explicit, surrounding the use of the visualization. Across numerous examples, “the social life of visualization†(to borrow a phrase from Wattenberg) has shown to be an important factor shaping the adoption, use, and efficacy of a visualization—an aspect often overlooked by the psychological / analytic orientation of contemporary information visualization. This position paper attempts a preliminary exploration of the consequences of this insight for the design of social visualizations by recasting visualization applications as not just external cognitive artifacts, but social artifacts. Key components of this re-thinking include the move from purely task-based considerations to that of ludic, or playful, activity and an exploration of fundamental design considerations for facilitating the social dimension of visualization use.
