The Binge Blanket by National Institute of Design
The Binge Blanket is a hand-woven blanket embedded with data regarding my Netflix viewing activity for 2021. The Data is embedded into the strands of each yarn used to weave it. Each thread of the yarn depicts an hour of the binge from a day in 2021 and the colour depicts the genre of the media viewed. Beads on each end of the Blanket denote the date of streaming. Using the medium of Blanket to depict this data was apt since I almost always Binge watch Netflix from the comforts of my bed, wrapped under a fluffy blanket!
This tangible data visualisation aimed to understand and see patterns relating to my viewing behaviour, which genres and media I view often, and so forth.
