Charting Constellations

Context

MICA MPS Term 1:

Foundations of Data Analytics & Visualization Literacy

Assignment Prompt: 

For the very first assignment in grad school, we were asked to visualize our journey that brought us to MICA with no constraints on tool or format. 

I was inspired to create a vintage-style constellation map of stars representing my life’s milestones in three distinct phases separated by the states I've lived in.  Each of these three homes are filled with memories, some of which shine brighter than others in making me who I am today.
