While most of his patterns are either outdated by more recent research or completely inapplicable to digital media, many are still very relevant to what we’re doing in this course. Particularly, his definition of six visual variables is directly applicable in any graphical visualization. John Krygier and Denis Wood more recently incorporated these variables into their book, Making Maps: A Visual Guide to Map Design for GIS, which expands upon Bertin’s theories and illustrates how each variable, when applied to various map symbologies, better communicates quantitative or qualitative differences in geographical data.
