I’m delighted to launch the first season of Explore Explain, a video and podcast series about data visualisation design.
For episode one it was a pleasure to welcome Maarten Lambrechts. We had a detailed conversation about his work on the project “Why Budapest, Warsaw, and Lithuania split themselves in two”, published on The Pudding website in April 2019.
