From 1973 to 2015, my grandfather notes down all his bicycle rides in a diary. These diaries are the subject of this project.
My aim is to give an overview of and insight in the complete biking history of my grandfather and the places he visited. Since a lot of data are available, a key question is how to handle this large amount of information: analysis and digitalisation are key in this respect, along with data visualisation and the choice of the most appropriate concepts and media. In this case, an installation seems the best solution since 3D designs give an extra dimension for information display. The end result is an installation of +/- 4 by 0.5 meter with 5894 hand carved wooden sticks, each of them representing a bicycle ride. Different colours represent the different types of weather. The purchase of a new bike, breakdowns and accidents are indicated by coloured pearls.
