In Johanna Drucker’s piece titled, Graphical Approaches to the Digital Humanities , the author discusses the ways in which graphical analysis can be manipulated to suit a more ‘humanistic’ approach to visualizing data. She claims that data presented graphical is objective, and is simply a collection of columns, axis, data points that are presented the way that these pieces of information are collected. Drucker states that we are able to differentiate a humanistic approach to collecting data from this standard version of graphical analysis by giving the data a point of view, or a subject. This was extremely confusing to me because I do not see how providing the graphical information with a ‘point of view’ will represent the collected data in a different way.
