Kind of interesting. Being colorblind I rarely use color to convey emotion/meaning, since for me it's almost meaningless.
Interesting that death is black in some cultures, and white in others.

That information is executed so poorly. Information graphics for the sake of being pretty.
- agree also. My ADD kicked in and i could not find the info.rusty_ace
- Are you suggesting that designers now need to account for your ADD?SeriousFreelancing

mg33 I noticed that too.
There is so many infographics that look AMAZING, you'd be crazy not too hang them on your wall, framed.But they are nearly impossible to understand, but not just the graphic above, in general I mean.

there's way too much content in this world. you could become the best designer in the world by destroying 90% of it
- not sure what that meansMiguex
- It means the world is full of content and rolling along gathering moss and not not stopping for birds that are 2 in the bush.Mr_Right

I'd agree, it's not the best way of presenting the information. The information itself, however, was interesting to me nonetheless.

I think it is an interesting start.
Is there a reason why you didn't continue the lines around the letters?Its seems like a general statistical visual map.
How did you gather your data?
Americans think BLACK shows authority, death, eternity, evil,mourning,style
Pink is still feminine after all it went through?

The Muslims see a lot of death...
- This is what I like about it anyone can come to their own deductive reasoning either serious or comical74LEO

ffs people. I didn't design it. I just thought the info was interesting.

Nice try fugged, but this is the wrong forum to have any kind of meaningful conversation about design, culture, etc. Kind of ironic isn't it?
- hellojeehae0
yeah interesting information... but the graphics failed to deliver anything. All i see is bunch of colors in a circle.
- TheRapture0
HE DIDN'T DESIGN IT
