Data Visualization from The Luxury of Protest
The Luxury of Protest is the design practice of Peter Crnokrak.
Peter is a London-based designer who came to the field from a research career in the sciences—transitioning into design following a postdoctoral tenure in quantitative genetics at the University of Toronto. After working under the moniker ± and positions at The Apartment in New York and Nick Bell Design in London, Peter established The Luxury of Protest in 2008.
A primary focus of Peter’s work is data visualisation, with a particular interest in the intersection of visual semiotics and data analysis. His work has been exhibited at InfoVis, bio.21, Computational Aesthetics, International Association of Empirical Aesthetics and SIGGRAPH.
The Luxury of Protest has been featured in over 60 books and magazines and has won a number of international design competitions, including AIGA 365 and the European Design Awards. In 2010, Peter was made a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in recognition of award winning expertise in design and data visualisation.
