THE BRIEF
Personal Data Visualization
An intensive personal data logging experiment. Over a continuous 14-day period (January 28 to February 10), I tracked my life hour-by-hour, recording the exact duration of daily activities to explore human behavioral patterns through abstract information architecture.

The Mathematical Matrix
The total data pool spans 336 individual hours. To visually translate this data, the illustration is divided into three typographic glyphs—"3", "3", and "6"—with each digit composed of exactly 112 vector data stripes (112 X 3 = 336).
Each individual colored line corresponds to exactly one hour of documented time, with the thickness of the color
blocks expanding relative to the cumulative duration of that specific activity.
