Information graphics has something that i've become increasingly interested in. I think it has a very miture quality to it and has a basis to it that is deeper than the aesthetics of it. I really enjoy the grids and big and small scales of type. Also appreciate where they have chosen to use lines to section different bits of information. You have to appreciate that usually information like this is produced in word or powerpoint and is incredibly hard to find interesting and in-gauge with.
Information graphics has a huge amount of applications for use, and obviously is a useful tool. Information graphics will also teach me to handle and structure large amounts of data which is useful to implement with just simple design task such as book layout and posters.
