Abstract

This article introduces the Codices of The School of Huejotzingo as early examples of data visualization from sixteenth-century colonial México. The glyphs in the Codices and the technique of repetition are used to represent quantities. A similar approach was introduced four hundred years later in 1930s Vienna that would become known as Isotype. Similar to the Codices, Isotype used pictograms and repetition to represent quantities. A set of principles were established to design Isotype charts that were engaging and memorable. The Codices are analyzed using the principles of Isotype to contextualize and introduce them into the data visualization timeline.

征服的同型

本文介绍了Huejozingo学派的密码，作为16世纪墨西哥殖民地数据可视化的早期例子。代码中的字形和重复技术用于表示数量。四百年后，类似的方法在20世纪30年代的维也纳被引入，后来被称为Isotype。与代码类似，Isotype使用象形图和重复来表示数量。制定了一套原则来设计引人入胜、令人难忘的同位素图。使用Isotype原理对代码进行分析，将其置于上下文中，并将其引入数据可视化时间线中。

期刊介绍： Information Design Journal (IDJ) is a peer reviewed international journal that bridges the gap between research and practice in information design. IDJ is a platform for discussing and improving the design, usability, and overall effectiveness of ‘content put into form’ — of verbal and visual messages shaped to meet the needs of particular audiences. IDJ offers a forum for sharing ideas about the verbal, visual, and typographic design of print and online documents, multimedia presentations, illustrations, signage, interfaces, maps, quantitative displays, websites, and new media. IDJ brings together ways of thinking about creating effective communications for use in contexts such as workplaces, hospitals, airports, banks, schools, or government agencies.
