How do the measured values relate to a reasonable scale of everyday experience? Can we identify ONE normalized measure that would help to put numbers in context? News provided by official media in Japan is apparently still short on factual/objective/integral information needed for guidance and acting decisively. The INSTITUTE OF INFORMATION DESIGN JAPAN is looking for people who can explain a number of questions preferrably in a visual, concise form. So if you're an INFORMATION DESIGNER or know any, join the cause, get in touch (email, Twitter, Facebook, Yammer, LinkedIn), ask for additional data & info! We'll try to feed you with the data/information you need. [Original press release] *Please feel free to split this topic into sub-questions. For more info check out |
