Iron Viz (2022) reaction Livestream - Tableau Conference 2022

0:00Good stuff. Okay. Andre, are you there?

0:04I am here, yes.

0:07We left that a little bit close. I tried to

0:09do something with minutes to go before the

0:12livestream started.

0:14And then I backed out at the very last

0:16minute.

0:17Are we live in our platforms again?

0:19I think we are. I think we are pretty much

0:21live everywhere.

0:22I'm just going to check and make sure

0:24everything is actually working as it's

0:27supposed to.

0:29Let's just double check.

0:32It says live here. Yeah, we've got 19

0:34people tuned in.

0:35So yeah, hello. Hello. If you're watching

0:37us, let us know where you're from.

0:39Let us know if the comments are working.

0:41I'm just going to quickly go and check all

0:43the locations to make sure everything is

0:45behaving like it should be.

0:47So here we go. I can see, yeah, we're live.

0:52Pretty good bit rate across all the

0:54channels.

0:55It's one of those things where even though

0:56it tells you everything is working, you

0:58kind of want to go and check everything

1:00yourself.

1:01Just for good measure. So that's good.

1:05The Iron Viz is going to start in, what is

1:07it, like 14 minutes now?

1:1014, 15 minutes. Exactly, exactly, exactly.

1:12So what I thought we'd do is go to the Viz

1:17Gallery.

1:19Have you been to the Viz Gallery?

1:21I have not been there now.

1:23If you've not been to the Viz Gallery for

1:24the Tableau conference, this is an absolute

1:26must.

1:27I'm just going to put it on the screen now,

1:29and then we're going to switch over and do

1:30a little bit of a shared experience over on

1:32the Viz Gallery.

1:35So the Viz Gallery has been put together by

1:37Tableau.

1:38It's essentially a virtual version of the

1:41actual gallery that they build at

1:43conference.

1:45So the virtual gallery is in essence just a

1:47physical gallery with beautiful Vizs

1:50printed out, hung up on the wall.

1:52This is the virtual edition for everyone

1:53who's joining virtually.

1:55I like the little touches. I like that they

1:57've got the Mandalay Bay in the background

1:59there.

2:00It's very, very cool. So you can absolutely

2:02browse, have a look around, make sure you

2:04check all these Vizs.

2:06I did actually do a bit of a live stream

2:08covering at least 10 of these, and then I

2:10realized it was going to take a lot longer.

2:12So parts of that will come soon.

2:14But if you head to Gallery B, this room is

2:17dedicated to the Iron Viz finalists when we

2:20look over here on the wall.

2:23So this is the Iron Viz wall, as it were.

2:26So what we're going to do before the live

2:27stream starts is we're just going to check

2:29these out, make sure that they are, you

2:32know, people have seen them.

2:33Because I think they're all beautiful works

2:34of art.

2:35Pretty much everything that makes it to the

2:37Iron Viz final always has more to it than

2:39the Viz suggests.

2:41So I think it's well worth having a proper

2:45look.

2:46So the first one we're going to have a look

2:48at is by CJ Mays.

2:49So in this Viz, CJ visualizes the

2:52experiences and stories of influential

2:55individuals on the Diary of a CEO podcast.

2:58So this is a podcast that I think is, is it

2:59on Spotify only?

3:01I'm not sure if it is only on Spotify. I've

3:03seen it on Spotify.

3:04I'm not sure if it's on Apple podcast, but

3:07he's gone in and I think he's pulled data

3:09from the actual podcast.

3:12So if we click on it, it actually opens up

3:13the Viz in Tableau Public.

3:15It's a little bit of a better experience.

3:17And if you're logged into Tableau Public,

3:20you can actually go in and edit this in the

3:21browser and have a play with it.

3:23I won't do that now because knowing me, it

3:25will probably not load or log in and I'll

3:27just probably put myself in trouble for the

3:29stream.

3:30But this is an absolutely beautiful Viz.

3:33I love the design. If you actually look at

3:35CJ's profile, he's a big fan of, he's a big

3:38fan of dark mode.

3:39If I just go back up and we just go to his

3:41profile and you scroll down in the past, he

3:44's been a big fan of dark mode Vizs.

3:46So you can see more recently that a little

3:47bit paler, but he basically only did dark

3:50mode Vizs right at the beginning.

3:53And I think it's always important to

3:55actually go back and look at some of the

3:57first Vizs people built.

3:59Because it shows a story and it shows a

4:01journey of the techniques they learned

4:03along the way and how it sort of led to

4:05what they can do today.

4:07And how they've sort of really done a lot

4:09of work to actually get to these amazing

4:12pieces of work that we now see here.

4:15I think it's easy to see the final product

4:17and think, wow, this guy is super talented,

4:21but actually people just practice and they

4:23get there eventually.

4:24We said that to the Data School consultants

4:27as well, right? Just don't delete old Vizs

4:30that you have on your profile because it

4:32shows progress.

4:34Exactly.

4:35Maybe people are interested.

4:37Although if I go to the very first thing

4:38about CJ, it looks pretty good. I think CJ

4:40is definitely doing a little bit of

4:42cleansing.

4:43We'll have to ask him at some point.

4:45Before the stream I had a quick look on his

4:47website as well.

4:49So if you can drop his website, I can put

4:51the chat link maybe.

4:53There's some cool interviews there as well.

4:55He's not got it on. Oh, here we go. Maybe

4:57this is it. Here's his website.

4:59Yes.

5:00Absolutely great. It's a beautiful design

5:02website as well.

5:03He's also done a lot of good interviews

5:04with various people in the community.

5:06So really, really good blog to check out

5:08and absolutely get stuck in.

5:10And he sort of talks about some of the

5:12techniques as well.

5:14So you can see here he's got the ironvis

5:16feeder resources that he used.

5:19And he basically walks through how he's

5:21built everything.

5:23The fonts and Figma, how he set everything

5:25up.

5:26It's a real sort of work of art actually

5:28sort of tearing this down and really

5:30getting there and finding inspiration as

5:31well from lots of different places.

5:34So definitely go and check this out.

5:36So absolutely fantastic.

5:39If we go to the next person, let's go back.

5:43The next one here on the wall is by Will

5:45Sutton, Interpreting Art.

5:48Now this is I think this is probably one of

5:50the funniest ones because initially I just

5:52judged this by the cover and I was like, OK

5:54, where's the data in this visualization?

5:58How on earth has this gotten into ironvis?

6:00So then you have to sort of engage with it

6:01a little bit more.

6:03So you go through the story.

6:05And if I actually just I'm going to quickly

6:06go through this just because of the time.

6:09It's actually interactive.

6:10So what you need to do is answer the

6:11questions and you're essentially

6:13interpreting the art that you're seeing and

6:15you're basically selecting one of these

6:17items.

6:18So if I go to question one, I'll interpret

6:21this as an uphill struggle.

6:23Let's click on that. All uphill.

6:27Obviously Tableau Public now deciding to be

6:29slow because probably everyone is looking

6:32at this now.

6:33So all uphill, let's say fight to the last.

6:37I'll just click these very quickly so you

6:40can see the net effect.

6:42Come on. Yeah. Let's call this a sports

6:46montage.

6:48Let's go to question four.

6:51Death by leaf blower. Yeah, I'll take that.

6:56Question five.

6:58Badly explained climate change theory.

7:01I'll take that. And question six. Gone

7:04shopping for his zebra. Yeah, I'll do that.

7:07Let's see if it let me pick that.

7:10It didn't pick question five. So we'll just

7:11give Tableau Public a chance to catch up

7:13with itself.

7:14So come on. Badly explained climate change

7:17theory.

7:18This has to be a really good example of why

7:21Tableau Public needs to be more web

7:23responsive.

7:25But once you've selected everything, you

7:27can absolutely hit submit your answers.

7:30This doesn't persist somehow, right? This

7:33is literally just the actual dashboard.

7:36I think it does. I think it does send the

7:38data because then there's an interactive

7:41data viz showing you how your respondents

7:44did something.

7:46So I'm wondering how he's firing that off.

7:48It's obviously one you have to download and

7:49see.

7:50It might just be firing actions and it's

7:52hitting a URL or something.

7:54And then that URL is maybe showing you what

7:56you've done.

7:57Yeah, like URL actions maybe. Or it's just

8:01adding your one response to a pool of like

8:04a thousand, if that makes sense.

8:06So then you see a question breakdown how

8:08you interpreted everything and the data viz

8:11comes to life.

8:13So really, really nicely done. Very

8:15interesting story.

8:16It tells you something about you as well as

8:17other people and how they interpret things.

8:20I'm always sort of skeptical about very

8:22complex chart types.

8:24But I think here it does actually help

8:26because the Sankey is vertical.

8:28So it actually leads you down the narrative

8:30path, if that makes sense.

8:32It's actually sort of guiding you down the

8:33page.

8:34So I'll give sort of top marks for using

8:36that effect to do that exact thing.

8:39And then at the very bottom, you can

8:40obviously carry on playing around with it.

8:43So pretty cool.

8:44Rodrigo is saying that I think he is using

8:46a parameter as a database feature.

8:49OK. Yeah. So storing the value in the

8:51parameter. Yeah.

8:52But that only keeps the state as of your

8:55session.

8:57Yeah, it's in the session. So it's not pers

8:59isting anywhere.

9:01But that's a really cool feature. I think I

9:02saw Mark Reid talking about that when it

9:05was launched.

9:07Yeah. And then just the very last one, make

9:10sure we leave some time for the build up as

9:13well.

9:14Kimmily Scott. So this is a visualization

9:21about diversity in the art world by

9:22examining Australia's Archibald Prize.

9:23So I'm taking the Archibald Prize to be an

9:26award given to artists.

9:28And essentially, she's basically taken a

9:31deep dive into the representation in that

9:35award pool over time.

9:38Going all the way back here, at least back

9:40into the 1920s, I'm going to guess here.

9:43But let's let this load up. And she's come

9:45up with her own database. And there's a

9:47really good narrative story here.

9:49There's a legend. There's a little bit of

9:51context and explanation. And as you start

9:54to sort of go into this,

9:56she's actually using the map layers feature

9:58to do this. So each particular part of the

10:01chart is a layer on a map.

10:04So it's a bit of a hack as well, because

10:05maps are typically used for displaying maps

10:07. But this is a small multiples setup.

10:11And then you've got the different layers

10:13you've got here. So you can switch on and

10:15off different layers as you work through

10:16this viz.

10:17So if I, for example, deselect the year of

10:20the win, you can see that it turns off a

10:22certain aspect of the chart.

10:23So I can actually just hone in on a

10:25particular part of this viz and customize

10:27this just by using the layers functionality

10:30.

10:31Now, Kimmily has had to use the layers

10:32functionality for maps here because this

10:35isn't unfortunately available for other

10:36chart types.

10:37So this may be something Tableau should

10:39work on, bring this to more chart types so

10:42people don't have to sort of do hacks like

10:43this to get there.

10:46But again, another really creative use of

10:48the capability. And this doesn't just stop

10:51here.

10:52If I keep scrolling down, there's a little

10:54bit more towards the bottom. There's a bit

10:57more of a drill down into the story.

11:00And there's a little bit more context. And

11:02you really start to get into the narrative

11:03section of the story.

11:05So you've got the context, you've got the

11:07drill down, and then now you're starting to

11:09look at things like specific issues such as

11:11diversity around different types of sort of

11:14demographics as well.

11:16So really, really cool.

11:19Cool. Well, I'm excited to see what they

11:21can produce in 20 minutes.

11:23Exactly, exactly. And so it's absolutely

11:25fantastic. So let me close these tabs down.

11:30There were some questions coming in through

11:32the chat as well.

11:33I was going to suggest maybe we focus a bit

11:35on that now. Let me go to the channels as

11:38well.

11:39Let's make sure we're on channel one before

11:41we get started. And then we'll switch over

11:44to this.

11:45And let me just mute this down a little bit

11:47here.

11:48So, OK, so let's have a look at the chat.

11:51Sorry, chat. We haven't had a chance to

11:52really sort of dive in.

11:53So we've got lots of people joining us from

11:55all over the world. People from Jordan.

11:59I am from the Internet, says Rodrigo in D.C

12:01., I assume Washington, D.C. Boston, Candice

12:05from Minnesota.

12:07Candice, you were on last night, I think.

12:08So good to see you again.

12:10Sweden. Hello, Tim and Andre from my

12:12commute heading home in Paris.

12:15Amazing. Watching on this, watching on the

12:17commute home. That's fantastic.

12:21That's amazing. I hope you're not in a car

12:24or something. Just safely on the train.

12:25Yeah, safely on the train. Take a picture

12:27and tag us on Twitter. Let us know what

12:29that looks like.

12:30We'll get it up on the end of the stream or

12:31something. Carl saying hello.

12:34And, yeah, Rodrigo is talking about

12:36parameters. And Hi from California from

12:38Sasha as well.

12:39So absolutely fantastic. So, yeah, Jamaica.

12:41More people coming in. Amazing.

12:44I think we could we might have covered

12:45every single country in the world by the

12:47end of these two days.

12:49Right. Because we've had some real variety

12:50over the last couple of days. It's been

12:52fantastic.

12:53I don't know how many countries there are

12:54in the world. I don't know exactly the

12:56number because it keeps changing due to,

12:59you know, political political issues around

13:01the world, which obviously aren't funny.

13:04But nonetheless, yeah, it's not it's not a

13:06static number of numbers. So Hi, guys

13:09joining from India NYC.

13:12Amazing. Absolutely. Let us know what what

13:15you're hoping to get from Iron Viz. Why do

13:17you watch Iron Viz?

13:18I watch it because I learn so much for the

13:20last three years. I've been a judge.

13:24Not this year, though. And actually, when I

13:25'm part of the judging process, you get to

13:27look at the visualizations and you get to

13:29tear them down a little bit.

13:31And I I'm always learning. I'm always

13:33amazed by the tricks that people come up

13:35with to get around limitations in the

13:37product sometimes, but also innovative uses

13:40and ways of applying something to a story,

13:42which is pretty cool.

13:43So, yeah. How about you, Andre? Mainly

13:48around getting inspiration.

13:50Like as we saw in the dashboards that you

13:52went over earlier, it's like there's so

13:54much in that.

13:55I remember I used to when whenever Iron Viz

13:57finished to just download those workbooks

14:00and then have a look at how they built them

14:02.

14:03Yeah. And then you can actually see like,

14:05hey, that's really complex. Exactly.

14:08And I remember I was I was thinking when I

14:10was kind of preparing for this, like the

14:13very first time I watched Iron Viz was back

14:16in 2015.

14:18All right. I don't know if you watched it

14:19back then. It was who was shine.

14:23He wanted with like a really interesting

14:25visualization because they had to connect

14:27to like some Gdelt data, which is like a

14:29very large data set about like all the

14:31events around the world.

14:33Like a news database. Yeah. And back at the

14:35time, I was working for like a media

14:38company.

14:39So that was really interesting because I

14:41was like spending days preparing these

14:43Excel dashboards and stuff.

14:45And someone builds this really interactive

14:48thing in 20 minutes on stage. And I was

14:51like, mind blowing.

14:52Yeah, exactly. I was like, wow, I

14:53definitely need to pick this tool up a

14:55little bit more.

14:57Exactly. Exactly. So I'm going to I'm going

15:00to switch on the stream here.

15:03Let's just again. That is the true goal. I

15:06think the previous session is overrunning a

15:08little bit.

15:09Pretty certain of that. Yeah, I am watching

15:11on the other social channels and people on

15:13Slack definitely say that it's it's a

15:15really good keynote.

15:16So maybe if you have time and you want to

15:18see another big keynote, if you've missed

15:20this one, then I would definitely recommend

15:23watching it.

15:24Yeah. And Jesse says as well, it's really

15:27cool. He thinks like, this is really about

15:30seeing new features being implemented and

15:32being used in the ways.

15:34Yeah. Yeah. I think Lindsay had a good

15:38example when she used.

15:40What was it? Set actions. Set actions. Yeah

15:45.

15:45So you set actions to build a dynamic menu

15:47rather than the menu system we used in

15:49Tableau.

15:50Yeah, she did it from food as well. So that

15:54was a crazy year because I think we had Hes

15:57ham, Lindsay and who was the final

16:01contestant?

16:03The person who won you mean?

16:05Yeah, they won with Hesham. It was a joint

16:08win. Remember Hesham? Oh my God, this is a

16:11game. This is so embarrassing.

16:14You Google it and save me please before the

16:18stream comes down on me.

16:21Complete memory blank.

16:25I want to say it's a name beginning with O,

16:27but I don't think that's right. Anyway, I'm

16:29not going to try and guess.

16:31Hesham and Joshua.

16:33Joshua. Yes. He did a viz about, his viz

16:37was cool because it flipped, it had like a

16:41black and white mode, a dark mode in the

16:45middle of the viz.

16:46And you could switch the context of the viz

16:48by looking at menus that weren't

16:50represented in terms of food. So they were

16:52looking at world foods.

16:54And he had a really cool feature that

16:56flipped the whole visualization on its side

16:59, talking about menus and world flavors and

17:02foods that weren't represented in the

17:04dataset that they were looking at.

17:05So that was a really cool story.

17:08Yeah, I put the link to the blog post in

17:11the chat. So if you can drop that into.

17:13Yeah, you put it in the, our chat.

17:18Our chat.

17:21Which I have lost. Bear with me a second.

17:28The stream is really skippy. I don't know

17:30what's going on there.

17:33For me it's fine. I'm seeing, oh actually

17:35no, mine's broken as well.

17:37Yeah, I think maybe just watch it on a

17:38little bit lower quality. For me they're

17:41walking off stage now.

17:43They're walking off stage. I'm a bit behind

17:44definitely. Oh God.

17:47Yeah.

17:48Let me just refresh the page and let's do

17:52that.

17:53Yeah, so Karl earlier asked what people are

17:55excited for.

17:57He mentioned Tableau Prep.

18:01Which is definitely, oh yeah, sorry Nisa

18:05was just saying Lindsay's tip is to drag

18:07calculations from Notepad directly into

18:09desktop, which was I think pretty cool.

18:12Yeah, that was pretty amazing. She had all

18:14her calcs ready to go and she just sort of

18:15dropped them in really, really quickly.

18:18Yeah, Karl mentioned Tableau Prep. What do

18:20you think about Tableau Prep in this

18:23session?

18:24It's a super interesting one. I think it

18:26does need to, I think what they should do,

18:30because Data Prep takes, I don't think Data

18:31Prep would fit into the timeframe nicely.

18:35But it could be a requirement for getting

18:38your data ready for Tableau and have the

18:43contestants publish their visits as like a

18:45virtual element before the event.

18:47So do like a video saying, OK, here's what

18:49I did with my Data Prep and maybe have them

18:52build it over a sort of a refined time

18:54limit.

18:55So there is a little bit of time pressure

18:56still, but it's not live in front of the

18:58audience, because I think the building of

19:00the story is very different from the,

19:03I think the more deliberate thought process

19:05that sometimes trial and error as well.

19:07Yeah, exactly. So besides Tableau Prep, do

19:10you think we're going to see any new tools

19:12being introduced there?

19:14Because we've seen, we've not seen anything

19:16from Salesforce, of course, in Ironviz. Do

19:19we think we see something?

19:20Maybe there's like an Einstein prediction

19:21being thrown in or something.

19:23I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Again, it's got

19:25to fit into the context.

19:27And I wonder if Ironviz is about wowing

19:29people or if it's about showcasing, or is

19:32it both? What do people think? Let us know

19:34in the comments.

19:35It's one of those interesting, it's one of

19:40the, I don't know, I personally wouldn't

19:42get excited about watching someone build a

19:45data model at a conference, you know, in

19:49front of 1000 people.

19:50I would get excited about someone building

19:54a visual. You see people running in here.

19:59Everyone gets like, is that like, you know,

20:00those, when you go to basketball, they

20:03shoot these t-shirts in the crowd.

20:05Yeah, t-shirt cannon.

20:09That would be cool. That would be cool. Let

20:12me turn the volume up here and get this

20:14going as well.

20:16And that is, it's just so powerful. Do you

20:18think about our communities? We were

20:20talking yesterday about even in like

20:22regular businesses that 70% of people don't

20:24even have information.

20:25And then you think about what's happening

20:26in communities and what we can do to impact

20:28communities and how much what we're doing

20:31and how much...

20:31These interviews were very well received.

20:33Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. These

20:36guys are absolutely blowing out the parts.

20:38I think, I don't know the lady on the left,

20:40but I think the lady on the right is

20:42Caroline Yamm.

20:43It's just like, yeah, it's so powerful.

20:46Yeah, especially, it's crazy to think this

20:48is just around data. Like, data is so

20:50important and the undercurrent of

20:52everything.

20:53Bam, bam, then let's jam jam. Because IronV

20:55iz is coming up next.

20:58That sounds like a song.

20:59Well, the thing with IronViz always was

21:01when you went to the conference, the

21:03keynote was like quite formal and IronViz

21:06came down and you just walked in with like

21:09a drink in your hands and some lightning

21:11that you had to swing.

21:13Exactly.

21:14You were super relaxed to look at it.

21:16Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

21:17It's a different atmosphere than with the

21:19real keynote.

21:20Yeah, exactly.

21:21Let me open my restream here.

21:25Yeah, you need to, yeah, one of the things

21:28Carl was saying as well, like, solving data

21:31problems on the fly would be interesting,

21:33right?

21:34Right, but I think that's more like an Al

21:36teryx speed challenge than it is, than it is

21:39like a thing. And maybe that's what we need

21:42, something different.

21:44Or you give people a data set and they need

21:47to analyse it and find a number or

21:50something. I don't know if that's a very

21:53exciting way. And who has the most creative

21:55or fast way of finding this data or

21:56something.

21:57But then on the other hand, this is very

21:59much like positioned as the visualisation

22:02competition. So you could maybe have

22:06another competition going on.

22:11I'm going to turn it down before we get

22:13started here. Interesting.

22:16Let's hope no Spanish translations today.

22:20We started off well so far. So let's get

22:22our fingers crossed. The livestream is

22:24really struggling. I don't think it's my

22:26bandwidth. I'm just going to triple, quadru

22:30ple check.

22:31Mine is fine. So I don't want to be...

22:35Bearer of bad news, right? There we go. Let

22:37's go.

22:37If I can see the timer on the back, you're

22:38on 1.30. I'm on 1.12. So you're like 20

22:42seconds behind.

22:43Yeah, let me do this.

22:47Are we saying data or data?

22:52So if people are a part of the Slack

22:54channels, in channel one they just posted

22:58an Iron Fist at home scorecard, which you

23:02can score each contestant based on analysis

23:05, design, story telling.

23:08And then that way you can come up with the

23:10score and who is your favourite.

23:12Nice.

23:13That's really cool.

23:17Here we go. I'm just killing 100 things now

23:24.

23:25There is a lot more excitement today than

23:26compared to yesterday as well, which is

23:28kind of good to see.

23:30Yeah, you're still about 30 seconds behind

23:31on mine.

23:32Alright.

23:37What is going on today?

23:42Let me do this.

23:47Everyone's getting excited. 4. There's a

23:49countdown happening.

23:51Good.

23:520, 1. And they're live.

23:56There you go.

23:58Yeah.

24:14I'm just checking out Twitter and there's

24:24loads of people like they have these cl

24:33appers they use.

24:38Oh, yeah. Yeah.

24:58Hello and welcome to Iron Biz 2022. Please

25:08welcome to the stage your host for the

25:08event, Andy Cutfrey.

25:09We're doing a special effects today.

25:31Special effects are going crazy.

25:32No, that's them.

25:35Really?

25:39Yes, them in the background. The air horn

25:41stopped.

25:42My applause was going on on loop.

25:44That's that's right.

25:54How many of you attended?

25:56I'm this is since 2015.

26:02Welcome to the stadium. We are going to

26:05have an amazing time.

26:05Yeah. And he's alone. Rodrigo is saying he

26:07's alone.

26:08Yeah. He sure has has moved on to another

26:11company.

26:12She's not joining us today.

26:18It is strange seeing and doing his own.

26:22I'm not sure.

26:33At least he has more tax than yesterday.

26:35Yesterday.

26:37What's he looking for?

26:39Hello.

26:41Yes.

26:43I was supposed to be.

26:45Oh, there we go.

26:46I'm not sure.

26:56Amazing. Amazing.

27:04I'm going to introduce our guest.

27:27I'm going to introduce our guest.

27:34Big intro, right?

27:43Hello.

27:45Hello.

27:48Thank you very much for filling in.

27:51And thank you all for joining us here in

27:53person.

27:54We'll be back in a couple of minutes.

27:57We'll be back in a couple of minutes.

30:43You ready to meet them? Let's go.

30:45[APPLAUSE]

30:47Alrighty.

30:51First up, coming to us from London, England

30:54, CJ Mays.

30:55Let's go.

30:57[APPLAUSE]

30:59Hi, I'm CJ, Tableau Visionary Ambassador.

31:03Welcome to Greenwich.

31:05[LAUGHTER]

31:07[MUSIC]

31:15Hi, I'm CJ Mays, and I'm recording this

31:17video from here in Greenwich, London.

31:19I actually used to live about an hour east

31:21of here, back in a county called Essex,

31:24but moved out with my best friends from

31:26school.

31:27[LAUGHTER]

31:29I've been using Tableau for about two years

31:31now,

31:32and I'm eternally grateful to be named

31:34Tableau Public Ambassador, Tableau Vision

31:36ary this year.

31:37It seems like a lot of luck has been going

31:38my way,

31:39and that's always handy when you're out in

31:41Vegas.

31:42My chosen charity is Grand International.

31:45I have the utmost appreciation for the work

31:47they do helping some of the most vulnerable

31:49people in the world,

31:50while supporting children's rights and

31:51gender equality.

31:53This is the workstation where dreams are

31:56made.

31:57We have CJ Dash Mays on the right,

32:00the feeder on the left hand pane,

32:02a box of wine just in case things get a bit

32:05rusty,

32:06aqua for the morning,

32:08and this Hans Rosling book that inspired my

32:10build today.

32:12You can see that there's no keyboard, no

32:14mouse,

32:15and that's because we always like to stay

32:16on the move,

32:17come check out some of the other places I

32:19like to work.

32:20[LAUGHTER]

32:21Ah, love it.

32:23He did a tour of London, hey, that's so

32:27cool.

32:29Yeah.

32:33It's really nice to know the Queen.

32:36He's really on the deck.

32:41Some people think that Matt plays as my

32:43favourite chart type.

32:45Check out this Venn diagram my mum sent me.

32:47Aww.

32:50Thanks, Mum.

32:51Feedback is a really important part of the

32:54Biz life cycle,

32:55and I had planned on getting some feedback

32:56from the Queen herself,

32:58but in fact she wasn't in,

33:00so I was left with the next best

33:01alternative, my flatmate.

33:03Love it.

33:04Let's hear what he has to say.

33:05Ah, how do you reckon I'll get on in the

33:07competition?

33:08Well, you probably lose, but at least you

33:09're in Vegas.

33:10Oh, wow, that's a huge support over there.

33:12Cheers.

33:13Yeah, yeah.

33:14Let's hope some of that luck and success

33:15rolls into the iMviz final,

33:17or he might be celebrating like this

33:18tonight.

33:19Ah, love it.

33:21So, that's actually really fun.

33:23[APPLAUSE]

33:24Now, you might catch him making some data b

33:28iz

33:29out on the strip, but for now, here in

33:31person, let's welcome CJ to the stage.

33:33CJ!

33:34Boom.

33:35[MUSIC]

33:45Next up, from Melbourne, Australia, let's

33:48meet Kim Lee Scott.

33:49Yeah.

33:50Nice.

33:53The hashtags are coming up on screen, so be

33:55sure to take those down.

33:58I've lived in Melbourne pretty much my

34:00whole life,

34:01and it's such a great part of the world

34:04with beautiful beaches,

34:05national parks, and delicious food.

34:07For fun, besides personal visiting, of

34:09course, I like to spend time with my family

34:11.

34:12We go out on day trips to the beach, take a

34:13drive to national parks,

34:15go bike riding, and generally exploring our

34:18wonderful city.

34:19You need to go to Seaside now, Andre.

34:21I've been to the Tabernow for four and a

34:22half years, and I just love how it's been,

34:24and the fact that you can build almost

34:25anything.

34:26My favourite feature of Tablo is the show/

34:27hide containers.

34:29I don't use this feature often, but it's

34:31really useful when needed.

34:33For example, in my IronViz qualifier vid,

34:35where I use show/hide containers to add

34:37extra context to the milestone archival

34:39room.

34:40It's really cool.

34:41In this competition, I'm proud to represent

34:42Australia and the APAC region,

34:44as well as my wonderful family.

34:46Really hoping to do them proud.

34:48My charity is the UNHCR, the UN Refugee

34:51Agency.

34:52Oh, yeah. Cool.

34:53My fiance used to work there.

34:54She's really close to home for me, and

34:56right now,

34:57with all that's happening around the world,

34:59Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan,

35:01not to mention the increase in climate

35:03refugees.

35:05This year's IronViz topic of education is a

35:08really interesting one.

35:10Education in countries such as Australia is

35:12taken for granted,

35:13but working on this topic and the data set,

35:16it's really forced me to examine and take

35:18stock of many things in my life,

35:20but more on that later.

35:22I've not seen someone who looks like me on

35:23the IronViz stage,

35:25so winning this competition would mean so

35:27much.

35:28I never thought I would see myself here,

35:30and to be honest,

35:31it still doesn't feel real.

35:33I know it sounds corny, but I hope that I

35:35can inspire my girls

35:37and to show them that they can achieve

35:39anything they dream of.

35:41I entered IronViz to challenge myself, and

35:43I did that.

35:44I entered to learn, and I did that too.

35:46So in my mind, just being on the stage in

35:49the finals,

35:50it means the world already.

35:51Yeah, I achieved a lot so much.

35:54I hope she's going to win.

35:55All right.

35:56Yeah.

35:57Now, here from all the way down under,

36:01please welcome to the stage,

36:02KK.

36:03That was bad Australian accent.

36:05That's amazing.

36:15And last but not least, from Suffolk in the

36:17UK.

36:18S-U-F-F-O-L-K, Suffolk.

36:22Suffolk.

36:23Okay.

36:24It's okay.

36:26Okay.

36:27Now.

36:28I think I might just say Suffolk.

36:29From Suffolk in the UK.

36:30Let's welcome Will Sutton.

36:33Love it.

36:34Good UK representation here.

36:40Yeah, yeah, yeah.

36:41Love it.

36:42Cool dog.

36:58Stayed at the back.

37:08Hi, I'm Will Sutton.

37:11I'm from the countryside of Suffolk in the

37:13United Kingdom.

37:15It's a wild and lonely place out here.

37:18I have to say, number one spot for social

37:20distancing.

37:21I enjoy keeping active.

37:23Good spot for social distancing.

37:26I love it.

37:27I think Will's dog, I think, has featured

37:29more than anyone else.

37:32Love it.

37:34I've been very interactive even then.

37:38There's been so many new features that have

37:39come along that really enabled me to do so

37:41much more with the tool.

37:42Amazing.

37:43I suppose I'm representing anybody with a

37:45bit of ambitions, a bit of dreams.

37:47Anyone that just wants to be better than

37:48they were yesterday.

37:50I'm from a small part of the world and

37:52people around here don't think that you

37:54could win

37:55a competition and go to Vegas.

37:57Oh, wow.

37:58Okay.

37:59What can I do?

38:00Lots of support over there in Suffolk.

38:04From my charity, I picked the UN Refugee

38:07Agency.

38:08I see a lot.

38:09Another UN.

38:10They're making chances to win some money.

38:12Yeah.

38:13They're doubling down.

38:14They've been to Vegas, clearly.

38:17Winning for me just proves the strength of

38:19this community.

38:21I didn't start working in a place that's

38:24sort of a mis-realization, but I was able

38:27to pick

38:27up the things that I learned.

38:30But probably not as geeky as these three on

38:30stage.

38:31They're even more geeky.

38:32What's the stake here for me?

38:33I think it's more just the journey.

38:36I'm just here to prove that putting the

38:38work in, putting the hours in does...

38:40Absolutely, Sophie.

38:42It's very easy to forget while you're at

38:44conference that we all have

38:45responsibilities beyond just

38:48tab-blowing.

38:49Absolutely.

38:50Let's hear it for Will.

38:51She's on stage.

38:52Hopefully, she's going to pull through and

38:54win.

38:55She's done.

38:56What a high five there.

39:03Contestants, contestants, contestants.

39:09How are you all feeling?

39:10CJ.

39:11What is it?

39:12I think you're looking right at him.

39:14Kim Lee.

39:17How do you feel?

39:18Have you been burning the midnight oil?

39:20I have been.

39:21I have been, yeah.

39:22Very good.

39:23What about you?

39:25You're going to be punching above your

39:25weight today.

39:26My punches.

39:27Oh God, what's up with all of these sayings

39:27?

39:28Yeah, yeah.

39:29Love it.

39:31Fabulous.

39:32Now, our contestants have not been studying

39:35alone.

39:36Working alongside each contestant is their

39:37study buddy, trusted advisor, and sometimes

39:40,

39:40let's be honest, stress ball, their sous-v

39:42isors.

39:43Each sous-visor is a longstanding member of

39:45the Tableau community, bringing the product

39:48expertise and moral support our visors need

39:49.

39:50Yeah, and they are not only providing this,

39:52rooting for their player, they're going to

39:55be providing insightful commentary for us

39:57all during the build.

39:59So, let's bring on the sous-visors.

40:01Boom.

40:02First up for Team Will, give it up for Mark

40:03Bradbourne from Twinsburg, Ohio.

40:06Let's go.

40:07Fighting Shocker with Nina, with Kim Lee is

40:13Nina, and you're in from Sydney.

40:18Love it.

40:20Didn't they in the past have like a chef

40:27hat as well?

40:31Yeah, they did.

40:32Yeah, yeah.

40:33They've gone a little bit lighter on it.

40:34Twenty minutes.

40:41That's tough.

40:42Here we go.

40:47Alright.

40:48Okay, class and everyone at home, count

40:50down with us.

40:52Five, four, three, two, one.

40:57Boom.

40:58There they go.

40:59And they're off.

41:02Now, just in case you failed the Pop Boys

41:04earlier class, our visors are being judged

41:06solely on what they create in the next

41:08twenty minutes using analysis, design, and

41:10storytelling,

41:11followed by their presentation they'll be

41:13giving at the end, which is up to four

41:14minutes long.

41:15Yeah, now it's time to meet our judges.

41:18So, oh the judges.

41:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.

41:21How many judges do we normally have?

41:25Four.

41:26Three.

41:27Excellent data analysis.

41:28How many judges are at the table?

41:29Two.

41:31Wow, right bunch.

41:32And is less than three.

41:34So, alas, just like Archana, one of our

41:35judges had to cancel their travel at the

41:37very last minute.

41:39No doubt.

41:40Last year's Iron Viz winner, Lisa Trescott,

41:41was supposed to be here and in person, but

41:43just like Archana, Lisa's currently unable

41:45to join us, but she is honoring her Iron

41:48Viz

41:48judging duties from home.

41:50Nice.

41:51So, hello Lisa.

41:52We have good news.

41:53We found a substitute at the last minute

41:55who we think just might have the location

41:59needed

42:00to build the chair at the table.

42:03So please welcome at this stage, Professor

42:06Hannah Fry.

42:08Love it.

42:09It's pretty cool.

42:10Professor, it is so great to have you here.

42:28Thank you so much Hannah and Lisa.

42:54We know you're watching from home.

42:55We wish you well.

42:56Our next judge needs no introduction.

42:58Here for the...

42:59How many times has it been?

43:01Thirteen.

43:02So, I've been a judge of every US Iron Viz.

43:07Oh, Jack, I'm sorry.

43:08I'm going to interrupt.

43:09Go ahead.

43:10Doris is in with some commentary straight

43:12away.

43:13We'll come back to you in a minute, Jack.

43:16Sorry to interrupt, Jack.

43:18It's just been dropped in the jock video.

43:20What's great about this from a storytelling

43:23perspective is that each country has equal

43:27visibility.

43:28And this is a really, really difficult...

43:31Oh, that's pretty cool.

43:33One of the things I hope they might do next

43:35year, because we're all virtual, they could

43:38have like a stream of what we're seeing

43:40there, but also three separate streams of

43:43springs.

43:44Exactly.

43:46I've suggested this before on Twitch, there

43:48's something called squad hosting, where you

43:52can host the four different views, the

43:54central stream, and then each of their

43:56screens.

43:57And you can choose which one you look at.

43:59Yeah, it would be great.

44:01Or even all four of them at the same time.

44:03Thank you, Jack.

44:04So, how many times have you been here?

44:06Do you remember the first time?

44:08So, 2011 was the first Iron Viz.

44:11No, Mark Bradburn.

44:12Jack's not going to get a chance.

44:16What's up, Mark?

44:17I feel so bad interrupting Jack, but I've

44:19got to point this out.

44:21So, Will is using background images, which

44:24was actually the original way Tableau users

44:27would get maps, where maps were actually in

44:29the product.

44:30You increased the volume a little bit.

44:33It's not me, it's the stream audio.

44:36They're being quietly mixed in.

44:38I can't increase it more than I already

44:41have.

44:42It's been 11 Iron Vizs that I've judged.

44:52Right.

44:53Amazing.

44:55I love how you just got it all in one

44:57sentence.

44:58Yeah.

44:59Never mind the story that came with it.

45:02Tableau Public, give it up.

45:04Looks a bit cold over there, I think.

45:11Taha, I'm going to remember to ask you the

45:12right question this time.

45:14Tell me something about Iron Viz and Table

45:15au Public and that perfect marriage.

45:18Well, Iron Viz was born on Tableau Public,

45:21and it kind of arose...

45:22Her audio is gone.

45:27No, no, it's back.

45:29I think it was them.

45:31...interpret the exact same data set.

45:34And what's been amazing is just the

45:35spotlight on the enormous talent

45:38and creativity of this amazing community.

45:41Amazing. Great.

45:42Any comments on what you're seeing in the

45:44build so far?

45:45You know, we've been watching all three of

45:47these contestants over the years

45:49as they've developed and grown skills.

45:52And I would say that each one of them has

45:53kind of adopted a certain signature style.

45:56So I'm really curious to see how that's

45:57going to come across.

45:59Oh, we have Ravi on the chat, so if Ravi

46:01just keeps on talking what we see on the

46:03screen.

46:04Yeah, Ravi can take over.

46:06Can I just say how crazy it is?

46:13They're all building dashboards right now.

46:15I'm just still taking the environment in.

46:18They're just super focused, building stuff.

46:21I'm just going to refresh the screen

46:26because I'm...

46:27It's a bit slow, one second.

46:30That would be a cool thing to have on Table

46:47au,

46:49just to change the canvas color so you can

46:52see white text

46:53rather than having to put it on a dashboard

46:55to then see it.

46:57I think on a screen it looks quite nice

46:58when you just have the clear crispness

47:02of the lighter text coming out.

47:04Are they already giving commentary while

47:07they're building?

47:10Do you think requirements will be changed

47:12at minute 18

47:14and they need to do something else, like a

47:15real-life use case?

47:17And let's not forget our fourth judge, our

47:18audience here with us today

47:20and those of you tuning in from home.

47:22Yeah!

47:25In just a moment we will share with you how

47:28you can text your vote

47:29and help pick this year's Iron Viz champion

47:31.

47:32All right, Andy, let's take it back to our

47:34supervisors.

47:34Let's see what's up.

47:36We've already done seven minutes.

47:37Wait, hold on, look.

47:39So there's something pretty crazy going on

47:41in CJ's build there.

47:43Curvy lines.

47:44Let's take a look. Come on.

47:46Who's directing this stream?

47:47These curvy lines are actually a violin

47:49chart.

47:50And for those of you that might not be as

47:51familiar with them,

47:52this is actually a box and whisker plot for

47:54a distribution.

47:55But what's great about this, instead of a

47:57box and whisker plot,

47:58is it allows you to see the previous and

48:01current values

48:02and actually be able to compare them,

48:03which wouldn't be quite as simple to do as

48:05a box and whisker plot.

48:06And this is, again, very advanced,

48:09but it's real harmony of both form and

48:11function.

48:13Form and function?

48:15What do we think, judges? Do we have

48:16opinions on violin graphs?

48:18Form and function, let's talk about it.

48:20So I buy the before and after.

48:23It seems to work really well in a violin

48:27chart.

48:28I'm a big fan of them, actually. I really

48:30like them.

48:31I think that they contain more information

48:34than a box and whisker

48:35because you can see the actual shape of the

48:36distribution.

48:37I think the only downside to them is that

48:40sometimes they can make it look

48:41as though there's data where there isn't.

48:43Because you're smoothing out the shape of

48:44the distribution.

48:46But I mean, I'm a big fan of them.

48:48Just say that to CJ as he's building it.

48:50What do I say? CJ's clearly going down gau

48:52ges and violins.

48:54He's diverting from-- just show me.

48:57You know, I'm a big fan of simplicity

48:59and not having lots of bells and whistles,

49:02but sometimes these kinds of charts are

49:04necessary to tell certain stories.

49:06And I know a violin chart is great for

49:07showing density.

49:09So again, I'm really--

49:11Hey, cancel the house.

49:13--and how this plays into it and whether

49:14these are truly necessary.

49:16I think we've seen a contrast already with

49:17Kimley's Viz.

49:18You know, simple dots, right?

49:20Yeah.

49:21Okay, well--

49:23Come on, show us some screens.

49:24Where's Will up to?

49:25So Will's just continuing to build out his

49:28story.

49:29Right now we're working on where we start

49:32to see that every data point

49:33is a human life, and we're really going to

49:35focus on that.

49:36I hope they're recording each of their

49:37screens

49:38and they're going to put these up later.

49:40That's going to be necessary because

49:42otherwise, unless you're there,

49:43you wouldn't have seen how any of these are

49:44built.

49:45I'm going to have to come to that at the

49:47right time.

49:48Andy, I wish that I had known.

49:50Would you enjoy having someone actually

49:54looking at you the whole time?

49:55Like the shell-shatter?

49:57Thank you.

49:58I hate it when clients do that,

50:00so I don't know why I'm having it in front

50:02of thousands of people.

50:04What they should have here is a little

50:06window showing us the--

50:10Next year we'll make it pajama themed.

50:12We'll be presenting people and just have

50:14the screens--

50:15Who wants to do a pajama party on Iron Viz

50:16next year?

50:17That would be so fun.

50:19How's Las Vegas?

50:21How's Las Vegas? Do you mean lost wages?

50:23In fact, do you know--

50:25Did he say lost your wages?

50:27--with $1 million?

50:28No, that was lost wages.

50:30Oh, God.

50:31This guy.

50:33You've missed those, right?

50:35There's plenty more to come.

50:37Animations. David, are you in the audience?

50:39You can see things that we can't see.

50:42Much of David's in the audience now.

50:44Nisa, absolutely.

50:46I mean, I definitely am in America right

50:48now.

50:49At this rate.

50:50I think that's--

50:51We've seen less Viz than--

50:52In a very good way.

50:54To be clear.

50:55In the best possible way.

50:57But I'm also-- I am so impressed with the

51:00concentration of the contestants,

51:03how they are managing to block all of this

51:04out and continue working.

51:06I think I'm missing the dual screen setup.

51:09What about you, Jock?

51:10What's your take for being back here in

51:12Iron Viz

51:12and how you think the contestants are doing

51:14?

51:15So Iron Viz has had a long history.

51:18The first four years of Iron Viz was--

51:21It was just a breakout session.

51:23And then after that, we got on the keynote

51:27stage,

51:29which is super exciting.

51:31And obviously there have been new features

51:34developed over the year,

51:35but animation has been really impactful in

51:39Iron Viz.

51:41And also, each year, the contestants do

51:45things--

51:46This is definitely Gogglebox.

51:48For those that are not in the UK, Gogglebox

51:52is something you should definitely check

51:53out.

51:54My timing is so horrible every time it's J

51:55ock.

51:56But I wanted to point out what Will is

51:57doing right now.

51:59So he's using one of the newer features of

52:00Tableau, which is map layers.

52:02But he's using it in a very unconventional

52:03way.

52:04Come on, show us.

52:05So he's got his countries, but now he's got

52:07additional layers using makepoint

52:09calculations.

52:10And he's going to be showing lines as well

52:13as big angry numbers.

52:15Big angry numbers? Bands, bands, right?

52:18Bands. Big angry numbers.

52:21Yes, we love those.

52:23So hang on, let me clarify. This is one

52:24sheet.

52:25One sheet.

52:26I saw a line chart, though.

52:27Yeah, there was a line chart. They'll be

52:27back.

52:28That's a different sheet.

52:29Just one sheet. It's like chart-ception.

52:33Charts with a chart.

52:35Good t-shirt.

52:36Yeah, movie.

52:37Charts-ception t-shirt, please.

52:39Try to hand that over to the next person

52:41that's going to support this dashboard,

52:42right?

52:43Yeah, yeah.

52:45With Kim Lee.

52:47Oh, we don't know.

52:50Yeah, I just, yeah, I agree.

52:51I've just sent a tweet out hoping someone

52:52sees it.

52:53Okay, so I do want to point out that Kim

52:54Lee is obviously using this.

52:56There's still time to save this.

52:57She's dropping her visualizations onto her

52:59dashboard.

53:00Here we go. The message is getting through

53:03somewhere.

53:04Are you in the Slack group, Andrei?

53:07Yeah, the Slack group is echoing all of our

53:10criticism around.

53:12I might delete it just to stop being facet

53:13ious.

53:14No, everyone's really excited about it.

53:19But yeah, everyone wants to see what's

53:20going on a little bit.

53:22Yeah.

53:23If you like maps in Tableau, you should

53:25know that

53:26Kent has had a hand in some of that

53:28features when he worked at Tableau.

53:31Let me come to you, Taha.

53:33We've got layout containers, you know,

53:35amazing things that people can build in

53:36Tableau.

53:37How can people go and see some more of this

53:39?

53:40That's super easy, Andy.

53:42Just go to Tableau Public.

53:44Each one of these contestants has their own

53:46portfolio of work.

53:48And there are two million authors on there

53:50where you can go and see work and be

53:52inspired.

53:53You can reverse engineer, learn how to make

53:55these.

53:56So head on over.

53:58What if I want to see one every day?

53:59I wonder which million authors aren't part

54:00of the community that Mark Nelson was

54:02mentioning yesterday.

54:02Well, we have just the thing for you, too.

54:04Because he said there's only a million.

54:06You can subscribe to something called Viz

54:07of the Day.

54:08The Tableau Public community team curates

54:10an amazing, inspiring Viz made by our

54:13community every weekday.

54:15And you can get that sent to your email

54:16inbox.

54:17And you can find out more about that at the

54:20Viz Gallery in the Data Village.

54:22And the Virtual Viz Gallery as well.

54:24Hannah, do you have a Tableau Public

54:26account?

54:27Show us the Vizs.

54:29Oh, sorry. My mic's not working.

54:31Put it across.

54:32You think Hannah should register for Table

54:34au Public today?

54:36Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Oh, yes.

54:40Okay, you persuaded me. You persuaded me.

54:43I'll tweet out your first Viz, don't worry.

54:45It will go viral.

54:46He will tweet out his... It will go viral,

54:48yeah.

54:49Definitely, because Andy has so much more

54:51followers than you can I find.

54:53I think we should check in. I actually

54:54wanted to ask Doris.

54:56Andy's pretty well connected, you'd be

54:58surprised.

54:59He's got the followers where I'm at.

55:01I know, I know. I'm just joking.

55:03Definitely. So as you...

55:06Ravi, you can see more than we can see

55:07right now.

55:08I haven't seen CJ's Viz.

55:10Oh, here we go.

55:12Learning through newspapers and learning

55:14things...

55:15Let me get rid of this briefly.

55:17It's pretty much just a beautiful design.

55:21And just really highlighting the simplicity

55:23of those three charts

55:24and just making you focus just on the front

55:25page of the newspaper.

55:27That's amazing. What's he doing right now?

55:30Is that a navigation button? Can you

55:31explain that feature?

55:32The navigation button?

55:34Yeah.

55:36The navigation button.

55:38Oh, sorry, Andy.

55:40It's really hard to hear.

55:42You're so far away.

55:43Yeah, that's exactly right. It's a

55:45navigation.

55:46So he just focused on the front and the

55:48back page

55:49and switching between the two using

55:51navigation.

55:52I didn't get that.

55:54That's a map of Africa, but it kind of

55:55looks like a bunch of grapes.

55:58Yep, it's a grape-like design.

56:01So it looks very grape-like.

56:03That's why it has the violin as well.

56:06Let's talk a little bit about the pros and

56:07cons.

56:08The Ta Map is actually quite smart.

56:10I really like it.

56:12Oh, wait, wait, wait.

56:14Oh, hang on. Will, let's go to Will.

56:16Is that a GIF?

56:17What's going on there? Mark?

56:19Is that a GIF?

56:20What just happened with those icons?

56:21What's happening?

56:22It's not an animated GIF. What are you

56:23talking about?

56:24It's 100% Tableau, baby.

56:26Okay, explain it.

56:29You can't see it. Show us.

56:31Will is going to employ animations in a

56:34very tasty way.

56:35Hang on a minute. Is he also using a

56:37regular expression in iMviz?

56:39Yes!

56:41Oh, that is crazy!

56:43Right, Jackson.

56:44You get a boss from Hannah Fry who uses a

56:46regular expression.

56:47That's okay. What can I possibly say about

56:48Will?

56:49He's got all the skills.

56:51But Will is going to use that animation

56:53that you saw briefly,

56:54kind of like Viz Bay.

56:55He's going to sprinkle that animation on

56:57and flavor that Viz.

56:59It's going to be beautiful.

57:02Nina, do you think Will has all the skills

57:05or is it Kimli?

57:06Well, still to be seen. I'm not yet

57:08convinced.

57:10Kimli is going to shed some light on what

57:12she's doing just in a minute.

57:14There we go. Love it, love it.

57:16I haven't seen anything.

57:18We've seen very little up close on screen.

57:22So in terms of where I stand on more, I

57:25guess, technically demanding,

57:26complicated plots versus simplicity,

57:28I think for me story is absolutely key.

57:31And working out what the story is that you

57:33want to tell

57:34and then creating the data that presents

57:38that story

57:38in the clearest possible way.

57:40I'll take that.

57:41The visualizations that I like the most are

57:43the ones where the story

57:44kind of hits you very squarely right when

57:47you look at it immediately.

57:48But I also like the ones where actually

57:50there's sort of depth to it.

57:52So a visualization where the more you look

57:54at it,

57:55the more there is to see.

57:56So I think that it's, I mean, it depends,

57:59Andy.

58:00It depends. It could be a consultant.

58:03We love that.

58:04And Andy, I want to comment a little bit

58:06about animation.

58:07So Spiderman, with great power comes great

58:11responsibility.

58:13And animation is very effective for

58:15storytelling.

58:17Can you increase the comments a little bit?

58:21Literally, we all have powerful visual

58:23systems, so we can judge.

58:26Everybody in this room can judge whether

58:29the animation was done effectively.

58:31In what ways can it go wrong?

58:33It will pull your attention.

58:36So it can totally damage a story by pulling

58:41your attention at the wrong moment.

58:43You know, animation, I think, is best for a

58:46time sequence.

58:48So that's what I'll be looking for.

58:50Is it going to be a time sequence?

58:52As I'm looking at the other contestants, it

58:55's actually super interesting

58:56because each one has chosen a different way

58:58to tell their story.

59:00There's animation here.

59:01It looks like Kim Lee's is a vertical type.

59:03Can you already rerun animations as in,

59:07yeah, so there is a button way to say,

59:09okay, let's rerun it.

59:10This would be super cool.

59:11You couldn't before.

59:12On that animation point, I think I agree

59:15with you.

59:16I think that everything that you include

59:18has to earn its place.

59:20I think everything has to serve a real

59:22purpose to build up to that final story.

59:25And I think that sometimes animation, while

59:28it can really detail

59:30or give you the understanding of time

59:31series data in particular,

59:33I think sometimes if it's used unwisely

59:35where it's not really serving a purpose,

59:37actually it can be distracting.

59:39Yeah, I noticed CJ's book was inspired by,

59:42CJ had the book Factfulness by Hans Rosling

59:45,

59:45and if anybody hasn't gone and seen Hans

59:47Rosling's TED Talks,

59:49it's a masterclass in animation.

59:51We are getting down to the wire.

59:53Just about a minute left, so I just want to

59:55give a reminder to the class

59:56that $10,000 is on the line.

59:58Or used rejects.

60:00Going to the charity of the winners' choice

60:02.

60:02I think that's why they've never won the

60:03Champions League at Man City.

60:05Hey.

60:07Where you can engage with us.

60:08Huge shout out to Ginny Mench for that.

60:10And now let's just go back to the studio.

60:13Ravi must have us muted.

60:15I guarantee he has us muted.

60:17Is he just chilling out?

60:18Is he pretty much finished?

60:20CJ is basically done.

60:21He's just making sure that everything is

60:22clean and polished for the final edition.

60:25He's as cool as a cucumber.

60:2830 seconds.

60:29If you're on Twitter, head to my profile

60:33and retweet the last tweet I just made

60:36about CJ.

60:38I hope when they go through the description

60:40,

60:40you'll actually get to see them.

60:42I think we're going to be...

60:43Are you ready for the end of the build and

60:45the judging process?

60:4616 seconds.

60:47I am.

60:49All right.

60:51We have 10 seconds left,

60:52so we are going to go ahead and calm down.

60:54That's okay.

60:55All right.

60:56Five, four, three, two, one.

60:58This is not distracting at all, is it?

61:00[Horn]

61:02Go on.

61:03[Music]

61:05Well, they made it.

61:06[Music]

61:08Good luck with the contestants now,

61:10Hogwarts.

61:11[Music]

61:14Make sure you go over to Twitter and

61:15Instagram.

61:16Let us know what you've been thinking using

61:17the hashtag #ahomefizz.

61:19Take a selfie of the...

61:21Yeah, let us know in the chat as well which

61:22ones you enjoy.

61:23We haven't seen any.

61:25[Laughter]

61:29Oh, God.

61:31I really hope...

61:34How are people going to vote virtually?

61:37I don't understand.

61:39They need to see the business.

61:44At this bit when we go through the business

61:44,

61:45they have to show us the business.

61:48Judges, data fam.

61:52Misconceptions from the grapevine.

61:55Inspired by the book, "Factfulness" by Hans

61:57Rosling,

61:58I create a fruitful play at how historical

62:01and generational bias

62:03change our perception of the world.

62:05Please show us the vis.

62:06Thank you.

62:07Within my vis, I focus at the world,

62:09continent, and country level

62:11with a case study of South Africa.

62:14I narrow the dataset to two global

62:16indicators

62:17of life expectancy and adult literacy rate.

62:21From the year I was born in 1997 through to

62:25the modern day.

62:27Whilst we can't assume causation,

62:29we see the positive relationship between

62:31these two.

62:33Using color, I highlight South Africa's

62:35above global average literacy rate

62:37and booming life expectancy.

62:40After the end of the apartheid,

62:42South Africa saw an increase in government

62:44spending on education

62:45as well as greater access to education

62:48for black South Africans specifically.

62:51The violin chart takes a global view split

62:57by quadrant of the world.

62:59The line highlights the earliest record,

63:01whilst the polygon is the current life

63:03expectancy.

63:04Notice how Africa sees a monumental 18%

63:07increase in life expectancy.

63:11Now, all countries in Africa have a minimum

63:14life expectancy of 50.

63:17With a quadrant average of 67.

63:20Just three years shy of the other.

63:23Do you think this has any interaction?

63:25It's not got to it yet.

63:27At the top.

63:28That one didn't go well.

63:30Okay, cool.

63:31I get it. Great.

63:32I'm laughing.

63:33Go with the pun.

63:34Great.

63:35My final section of the newspaper displays

63:40Africa's literacy rate.

63:42Thirteen of the countries now have a

63:44literacy rate

63:45higher than the global average.

63:47Predominantly in the south of Africa.

63:50For my case study, through color again,

63:53I highlight South Africa's increase in

63:55literacy rate,

63:56now at 94%.

63:58Having had the opportunity to dive into the

64:01data,

64:02focusing on the dates of our lifetime,

64:04I realize how history sometimes warps our

64:06perceptions.

64:07As a room full of analysts and storytellers

64:12,

64:12I want to impart upon you the importance of

64:14finding the truth

64:15and not being misled.

64:17I'm glad to have found how Africa has

64:19developed.

64:20Thank you.

64:21Thank you, CJ.

64:23That was a cool speech.

64:24That was a good vid.

64:25One down to you.

64:26I wonder if you're watching this virtually,

64:29I wonder if what we couldn't see is because

64:31of the virtual experience.

64:32Okay, we're going to get to just one

64:33question each.

64:34So, Taha, what have you got to ask today?

64:36But yeah, Ravi and a few others.

64:37I've been dying to ask this question.

64:39CJ, how the hell did you make that map?

64:42How did you make those points?

64:45A lot of data prep.

64:47So what you'll see is there's five

64:49different layers to this.

64:50Come on, Carl.

64:51Four different layers to this chart.

64:53The first is a polygon,

64:55and so this is actually about 100 different

64:56points

64:57using different mathematics functions

64:59and a path to draw it as a polygon.

65:02As in the gauge chart, I really nerded out

65:04on.

65:05If you click into the points,

65:07you'll see that I've taken the raw data set

65:10and densified the data to have 100 points

65:13for each percentage mark.

65:14I've then used trigonometry.

65:16All in 20 minutes.

65:18And scaled them outwards and then joined

65:20them with a line.

65:22That's amazing. Thank you.

65:24That's absolutely crazy.

65:26We are going to move on for the sixth time.

65:29Drawing with numbers, they call that.

65:31Thank you, Danica.

65:33I'm going to move us back and disable these

65:34.

65:35There we go.

65:37MyViz is a personal story.

65:39It's a story of what could have been if

65:41circumstances were different.

65:42I am Cambodian Australian,

65:44but I'm also a child of refugees born in a

65:46refugee camp.

65:48I've always wondered what my life would

65:49have been like

65:50if we had returned to Cambodia after the

65:52war,

65:53had we not come to Australia.

65:55Let's explore this using data.

65:57Oh, cool.

65:59We can measure a country's quality of

66:00education by its literacy rate.

66:03That is the percentage of the population

66:05over the age of 15

66:06who can read, write and understand a simple

66:08statement

66:09about their everyday life.

66:11We can see here up here in blue, Australia

66:13's literacy rate sits at 99%.

66:16That's pretty high, huh?

66:18Compare that to Cambodia.

66:20Down here in orange at 73.9%.

66:23Shining a light.

66:25However, there is a lot behind Cambodia's

66:26literacy rate.

66:27It's skewed by its majority younger

66:29population.

66:3095% of the population are under the age of

66:3365.

66:34Many of the older generation had their

66:36education cut short

66:37because of the war, and many more refugees

66:40didn't return home.

66:41They decided to settle in another country

66:43in search of a better life,

66:45such as my family.

66:47So what impacts literacy rate?

66:50When we look at total government

66:51expenditure on education,

66:53we can see that Australia spends 5.5% of

66:56its GDP on education.

66:59That may not seem like much, but consider

67:02...

67:02- Broly?

67:06- Is it us, or is it...

67:09- Cambodia only spends 2.6% investing in

67:12education.

67:13But what else is there?

67:15In Cambodia, while the expected number of

67:19years of schooling

67:20is just under 12 years, in reality, the

67:22children of Cambodia

67:24are dropping out just before five years.

67:26So the children of Cambodia are not getting

67:28a high school education.

67:3076% of its population live rurally,

67:33which is impacted by poverty and lacks

67:35basic infrastructure.

67:37Gender roles also plays a role in the

67:40shorter length of schooling.

67:42Australia, on the other hand, expects

67:44adults to have around 20 years of schooling

67:45.

67:46Higher education is common.

67:48I myself studied for a further four years

67:51after I finished high school.

67:52Would I have left school in grade five if I

67:54had lived in Australia?

67:55We can see how education impacts our

67:59country.

68:01Australia's population has a life

68:02expectancy of 82.5 years,

68:05while in Cambodia, the life expectancy is

68:0868.75 years.

68:10My dad just turned 67 this year.

68:13We see fertility rates lower for Australia

68:16compared to Cambodia.

68:18Women in Australia are having children

68:20later.

68:21They're having fewer children or not having

68:23children at all.

68:24The average age of first-time mothers in

68:26Australia is 29 years old.

68:29The average age of first-time mothers in

68:31Cambodia is 21.9 years.

68:33I had my first child when I was 30.

68:36And lastly, we see a huge gap in economic

68:38output

68:39in terms of GDP per capita between the two

68:41countries.

68:43These outcomes may not be the direct result

68:45of literacy rate alone,

68:47but we can see that quality education

68:48impacts both the individual and their

68:51country.

68:52Cambodia's situation has improved

68:54significantly over the last decade,

68:56but if my family had returned there after

68:58the war,

68:59I would not have had the same opportunities

69:01that I've had.

69:02Amongst other things, education plays a

69:04huge part in who I am today,

69:06and without it, I wouldn't be here today

69:09telling you my story.

69:11Education is a human right,

69:13yet millions of children around the world

69:15lack access to quality education.

69:17I want to leave you today with a quote from

69:20the world's youngest Nobel Prize winner,

69:21and female education activist, Mulalla Yous

69:24afzai.

69:25"One child, one teacher, one book, and one

69:27pen can change the world."

69:30Thank you.

69:31Thank you, Kimli.

69:32Very cool.

69:33All right.

69:34Very good, yeah.

69:36We are going to--

69:37I wonder if she told too much of that story

69:38.

69:39Does that make sense?

69:40We are going to take a question from

69:42Jacques.

69:43I totally love the flashlight image at the

69:47top.

69:48Yeah, me too.

69:49Thank you for scrolling back up,

69:50because data can help us see the world.

69:54Tell us about the journey that you came to

69:56that part of your design.

69:59Yeah, so the flashlight is basically just

70:02that.

70:02It's helping to draw the focus on the two

70:04countries that are highlighted in my viz.

70:08You know, in the dataset we had heaps of

70:09countries in there,

70:10but I liked the imagery of the flashlight

70:12to shine a light,

70:13so I drew this little girl up in the corner

70:15here.

70:16This is me shining a light and showing

70:18everyone

70:19that these are the two countries that are

70:20really close to my heart

70:22and influence who I am.

70:23Yeah, I really enjoy the simplicity here.

70:25Thank you, Kimli.

70:27That's pretty good.

70:28Yeah, I like it.

70:29You're up.

70:31Okay, it is time for our final presentation

70:33.

70:34Will, are you ready?

70:35Thanks, Andy.

70:36Okay, go.

70:37Let's go.

70:38Thanks, Andy.

70:39Hi, DataFam.

70:40When I was reviewing the datasets, I

70:41learned something,

70:43and that was that literacy doesn't just

70:44benefit the student,

70:46it benefits everyone around them.

70:48In this demo, I'm going to walk you through

70:5020 years

70:50of closing the youth literacy gap.

70:52We'll look at where we were, where we are

70:53today,

70:54and what we can do in the future.

70:57So if we go back to 2002, the world was a

70:59different place.

71:00We were just having the internet in homes,

71:03we were watching Lord of the Rings in the

71:04cinema,

71:05and in the world of education,

71:06we had the Maastricht Global Education

71:08Declaration

71:09that said for a globalized world, we need a

71:11globalized education system,

71:13and that education should be seen as a

71:14human right

71:15and available to everyone.

71:17So I've got a question for you.

71:18I've got 100 young people on screen here

71:20from all around the world.

71:22How many of them do you think can read and

71:25write?

71:26Or 87 can, which means 13 are illiterates,

71:29which means they can't read or write.

71:31They're going to have reduced opportunities

71:32in work and education.

71:34I mean, how do you read a textbook,

71:36or how do you write a CV for a job

71:37application?

71:38You can't.

71:40And when we look at gender, we see more

71:41issues,

71:42where women are much more likely to be

71:44illiterate than men.

71:46This was the world in 2002.

71:48This is almost like a story mode in Tableau

71:50, right?

71:51Things got better.

71:53It's used in 2002.

71:55We see literacy rate didn't improve,

71:57the gender cap came down, but after 10

71:59years,

72:00what was the benefit of telling this?

72:02Because it's one dashboard.

72:04Well, what I wanted to share, I didn't know

72:05the story,

72:07and their stories, so here I've gathered

72:09three different stories

72:10from around the world.

72:12It's technically quite cool.

72:14But hold on.

72:16It has to be a story.

72:19It has to be just a name on the same sheets

72:22with the slide.

72:22He is using a parameter at the bottom to

72:26trigger some stuff.

72:28There's already a little bit of debate in

72:33the chat,

72:33but he's going to win.

72:42This is really good for mothers.

72:44And we saw in Nepal that school became

72:46actually a protective force

72:47from students like Rani falling into child

72:49marriages,

72:50which then meant they would have more

72:52opportunities in their future

72:53rather than just being a parent.

72:55And in that country, we saw the fertility

72:57rate decline.

72:58In each of these cases,

73:00literacy didn't just benefit the student,

73:02it benefited everyone around them.

73:04In India, everybody got wealthier.

73:06In Zambia, everyone was living longer.

73:08In Nepal, we were redefining women's role

73:10in society.

73:12So back to 2002.

73:14Let's bring this picture up to date.

73:17So today, with a bit of forecasting,

73:19we can see sort of a similar increase in

73:21literacy going up,

73:22gender gap coming down,

73:24but what I don't care about is these seven

73:26people here.

73:27Is it going to be another 20 or so years

73:29before we can reach them?

73:30Well, when we dive into the data a bit

73:32further,

73:33we see that literacy is not like evenly

73:36distributed around the world.

73:37It's very concentrated in parts of Africa

73:39and Asia.

73:40In this map, I've highlighted countries

73:42with below average literacy.

73:44Yeah, this whole explanation is pre-written

73:46, of course.

73:48Two out of three years are illiterate.

73:51And using the interaction in Tableau,

73:53we can dive in further with the data.

73:55So when I click on Chad, I can see that 73%

73:57of the years are illiterate.

73:59But now we can actually understand the

74:00benefits

74:01if they did become the global average

74:03literacy rate.

74:05It might be sheet swapping, yeah.

74:07Live 14 years longer and have two children

74:10per woman instead of five.

74:12So I would encourage you to support

74:14literacy programs in these areas

74:16by doing so you're not just benefiting the

74:18students,

74:19you're benefiting the people around them,

74:21and you're claiming a fairer education

74:22system for a globalized world.

74:25Thank you.

74:26(Applause)

74:30You can do a sheet swapping now with

74:32floating objects as well, right?

74:35So that's probably what's happening here.

74:37Just a quick reminder, get your phones

74:38ready to be phone voting

74:39because it's got to be a relatively brief

74:40window.

74:41The vis shrunk from the whole page to that

74:43top right corner.

74:44So I'm wondering how it did that.

74:46I think when you're presented with a

74:47dataset,

74:48there's always a really tough choice

74:50between whether you present the bird's eye

74:51view

74:52or, as I like to call it, the worm's eye

74:53view.

74:54Talk to me about how you made the choice to

74:57include the countries that you chose.

74:59You want to put those back on the screen?

75:01Well, I really started off on that global

75:03picture of where we were 20 years ago

75:06and saw there was an incentive to try and

75:07improve literacy rates.

75:09I then saw that when we actually look at

75:11the data on the whole perspective,

75:13that's not really happening.

75:15Steve, you might be onto something.

75:17This here is one map.

75:19The lives that are being improved.

75:21I kind of did a bit of both.

75:22So I started with the top down and then

75:25sort of actually drilled it back to the

75:26human,

75:27what the impact is for them.

75:29So kind of a bit of both, I think.

75:31You have to wait until they're published, I

75:31guess.

75:32Thank you.

75:33Thank you so much.

75:34So now we've heard from our contestants and

75:35the judges along with Hannah,

75:37but it is not just about the audience here

75:39in Vegas.

75:40Everyone can take part.

75:41Data fam, watching from home, you'll also

75:42be able to vote for your favorite vis.

75:44That includes us.

75:45You can all vote on Twitter and Instagram.

75:47But first, here's Archana coming to us

75:48again from her home in London

75:50to share with us all of the important terms

75:52and conditions.

75:54Nice.

75:55Hello again, everyone, and what an exciting

75:57show down that was.

75:58Wow, quick outfit change.

75:59Congratulations to the team.

76:00It's like Eurovision here.

76:01Yeah, exactly.

76:02And getting through their builds.

76:04But this time I'm here for a very serious

76:06job, which calls for a very serious outfit.

76:10It's the terms and conditions, so listen up

76:12.

76:13Standard text messaging rates apply

76:15according to your cellular provider plan.

76:17Poll Everywhere does not charge for text

76:18message responses.

76:20Audience members outside of the US and

76:22Canada will not incur long-distance texting

76:25charges,

76:25though other charges may apply.

76:28For the US and Canada, the text voting

76:30number is 37607.

76:33For the rest of the world, the text voting

76:37number is +1 747 4443548.

76:42Got it?

76:43Back to you, Danica and Andy.

76:45They changed the feed.

76:46Thank you, Archana.

76:47Hello to Archana and Lisa who are watching

76:49at home.

76:50Okay, everybody in the audience, you know

76:52the numbers.

76:53Vote by text is going to be open in one

76:55second.

76:56Just one thing to say.

76:57There's no hashtag.

76:58There are hashtags on those podiums.

77:00Ignore the hashtag.

77:01Right.

77:02Voting is open now.

77:04Get voting.

77:05If you think CJ should win, text.

77:07IV22CJ.

77:09If you think Kimli should win, text.

77:10Don't add the hashtag.

77:11IV22.

77:12Kimli.

77:14And if you think Will should win, text.

77:16IV22.

77:17Will.

77:19That's right.

77:20Okay, we're going to visit with our Sioux

77:21visitors while you're voting.

77:22For one last time, they're going to make a

77:24pitch for their contest number on screen.

77:27Doris, why should it be CJ?

77:30Iron Viz is voted on three aspects.

77:33Storytelling, design, and analytics.

77:36And even in this audience, only few would

77:39be able to recreate these technically

77:42masterful

77:43visits with such a beautiful design and

77:45compelling analytical story.

77:47So CJ has aced it on all three aspects.

77:51And that's why CJ is my champion.

77:54Excellent.

77:55All right, Nina.

77:57Yeah, I agree, Jesse.

77:58What are we saying for Kimli?

78:00Kimli.

78:01Kimli has come to the Iron Viz stage today.

78:03I'm going to retweet Sarah's.

78:04Only to show you what she can do.

78:05Yeah, I put the link in our chat, but I'm

78:07not sure if we can chat it with everyone,

78:10right?

78:11No.

78:12And I think it's undeniable that she's done

78:14so succinctly, eloquently, and beautifully.

78:18And listen, everyone.

78:19After all you've seen today, you can

78:21certainly be very impressed with a bunch of

78:25grapes,

78:26with some flying people.

78:29But you are going to walk away remembering

78:31what Kimli has shared with you and how she

78:34's

78:34inspired you to find your own story.

78:36And that is the power of data.

78:38And that is why Kimli is going to win Iron

78:39Viz 2022.

78:41Go Kimli!

78:42Who's voting?

78:43I vote Kimli.

78:44It's getting hot in here.

78:45Yeah, the temperature just got a little

78:46higher.

78:47Okay, voting is going to close in a minute.

78:50So Mark, are you going to take that?

78:52Oh really?

78:53I've hacked the person's side screen.

78:56So Will took a very complex data set and

78:59focused on the human element.

79:02The fact that every data point is a human

79:04life.

79:05And that when we affect change on the

79:07individual, it also affects change around

79:11them.

79:12Now Will employed not only original

79:13features to Tableau and used them in new

79:16and effective

79:17ways, but also used new features like

79:19animation and map layers to really tell an

79:22effective

79:23story in a beautiful design.

79:25And his storytelling was superb.

79:27So I think we should probably crumple up

79:29the newspaper.

79:31Turn off the flashlight.

79:33Crown Will champion.

79:36Is this a WW?

79:39What is happening here?

79:41What is happening?

79:42Thank you so much, Mark.

79:43All right, everyone.

79:45Just one more minute before voting by text

79:47ends to vote for CJ text.

79:49IV22 CJ.

79:51If you're voting for Will text.

79:53IV22 Will.

79:54And if you're voting for Kimli text.

79:57IV22 Kimli.

79:59The winner will be crowned 2022 Ironvis

80:01champion and receive $10,000 in prize money

80:03with another

80:04$5,000 going to the charity of their choice

80:06.

80:07So I have to say, Danica, this has been an

80:09impressive set of finalists this year.

80:11Do you think it's going to be close?

80:13Yeah, which means every vote counts.

80:15Hopefully you've done it once and you've

80:16already done it by now.

80:18Has everybody voted?

80:20Yeah, because we're closing the votes in 5,

80:244, 3, 2, 1.

80:26All right, that's it.

80:28It's time to tally up the votes to see what

80:29we have learned about today's visits.

80:32All right, so while we're waiting for the

80:34tally to be done, you know what?

80:36It's fitting that this year's data set was

80:38about education.

80:40You may not know, but Ironvis has a

80:41secondary competition, Student Ironvis,

80:44and that is made up entirely of students

80:46enrolled at academic institutions across

80:48the world.

80:49To tell us more about it, please welcome to

80:51the stage the winners of the 2022 Ironvis

80:54student edition

80:55from the University of Maryland, Michael

80:57Dunphy.

80:58[Cheering]

80:59Very cool.

81:00[Music]

81:04From the Georgia Institute of Technology, N

81:07iveda Samathong Kumar.

81:09[Music]

81:15And from the University of Wisconsin, say

81:17hello to Alex Johnson.

81:19[Music]

81:25Must be amazing.

81:26All right, I have a brief minute with these

81:27amazing students,

81:28so I'm just going to go ahead and go down

81:29the line and ask a question.

81:31Michael, what inspired you to learn Tableau

81:33?

81:34Thank you.

81:35I was inspired by the community, you all,

81:37right?

81:37Seeing the visits on Tableau Public, seeing

81:39the amazing creators spotlighted through

81:41things like

81:41Vis of the Day, seeing the level of

81:43dedication and enthusiasm for competitions

81:45within the community like Ironvis.

81:47I guess what I'm trying to say is the

81:49community, the DataVAM community, has so

81:51much passion for data, right?

81:53Data analytics, data visualization, data

81:56storytelling, and I guess that enthusiasm

81:58just wore off on me.

82:00So, here I am, excited and ready to learn

82:01even more about Tableau.

82:03Thank you.

82:05[Applause]

82:08All right, Niveda, what was it like

82:10entering the Student Ironvis competition?

82:13I was very excited.

82:15I enjoy participating in competitions given

82:17their structured project problem statements

82:21and motivating deadlines.

82:23And I found the Student Ironvis a great way

82:25to practice my data with skills,

82:28especially with all the guidance from the

82:30previous winners and from the other

82:31community members.

82:33Thank you, wow.

82:35That was really good.

82:36All right, Alex, you're a Tableau student

82:38ambassador.

82:40Can you tell us about that program?

82:42Yeah, as a student ambassador, my main

82:43responsibility is to inspire and empower

82:46other students to build their data skills

82:48in Tableau.

82:50To do this, we facilitate opportunities for

82:51growth through training and engagement

82:53events,

82:54such as workshops and local data

82:56visualization competitions such as Ironvis.

83:00Amazing, thank you.

83:01You're all on a great path and I hope to

83:02see you on this stage in the future.

83:04Give it up again for the winners of the

83:052022 Ironvis Student Edition.

83:08Thank you.

83:09Thank you.

83:12My sound effects stopped working.

83:13Oh, they stopped again.

83:16All right, well the energy has been

83:17absolutely incredible.

83:19It's so nice to be back on stage and live

83:20with you all.

83:21Truly, truly.

83:23An outstanding year and a remarkable

83:24example of Tableau being used by some of

83:26its finest practitioners.

83:28I've been amazed this entire time.

83:30So I believe scores have been tallied from

83:32the judges.

83:34They've made their decision.

83:35And I think the community votes have been

83:37tallied as well.

83:38Yeah, the community votes have also been

83:40tallied.

83:41It's time.

83:42Do you want to find out who the winner is?

83:44I do.

83:45Yeah, I do.

83:46Today I have a golden envelope.

83:48Your music is a lot better than yesterday.

83:50A golden envelope.

83:52Ooh.

83:54Thank you.

83:55No one spoil it before it's over.

83:56All right, if you're watching it live, do

83:57not spoil it.

83:58Do not spoil anything in the chat, Ravi.

84:02Before we announce the winner, amazing job,

84:05right?

84:06I might.

84:07Thank you to our judges.

84:08Hide the chat.

84:09Thank you to Lisa at home and to Hannah.

84:11Yeah, hide the chat, please.

84:13Thank you to my co-host, Archana Ganesh

84:14alingam, who is watching from home.

84:16I'll get spotted, but not nice.

84:17Thank you to Lisa.

84:18Thank you to the Suvizs.

84:19Thank you to the contestants for a dazzling

84:20display.

84:21And thank you to everybody here for

84:22bringing the energy and amazing screens.

84:25Thank you.

84:26Yeah, this is amazing.

84:27Really good.

84:29Also, yes.

84:32Also, a big shout out to our sponsors.

84:34And in particular, today's Diamond sponsor,

84:37our partners at Interworks, for help making

84:39this event possible.

84:40All right.

84:43Wait, we have news.

84:45We have news.

84:46One more thing.

84:47Oh, no, not a draw again.

84:49You're having a good time at Tableau

84:50Conference this year.

84:52Oh, they can announce the next one, maybe.

84:55That's good.

84:56Oh, next year, Vegas again.

84:58Would you like to do it again next year?

85:03That is good.

85:04I'm delighted to tell you all that Tableau

85:07Conference will be back in Spring 2023.

85:11We'll announce it.

85:12Yes.

85:13More details will be announced soon, but I

85:17cannot wait to see you all again next year.

85:21All right.

85:22That's tension building.

85:23Let's get this done.

85:25All right.

85:26Okay.

85:27In second place, receiving $2,000 in prize

85:30money and a $1,000 donation to charity is

85:34CJ.

85:36Amazing.

85:42That leaves Kimli and Will, one of you who

85:45beat this year's 2022 IronBiz champion.

85:49Now, in second place, ready to take home $5

85:52,000 in prize money with another $2,000

85:57going to charity is Kimli.

85:58So close.

85:59Will has won.

86:01What an announcement.

86:02IronBiz champion.

86:05Careful.

86:10Okay, so no one actually is worth it.

86:13All right.

86:23Will.

86:25Here I come.

86:26I'm coming.

86:27Here I come.

86:28All right, Will.

86:29You get to take home the top prize of $10,

86:31000 and Tableau sending $5,000 to the UNHCR.

86:35How does it feel?

86:36It's incredible.

86:37Thank you, Data Fam.

86:38All right.

86:39Thank you.

86:40Yeah, you heard it.

86:41Amazing.

86:42Congratulations, everybody.

86:43That is it for IronBiz 2022.

86:46So long, everybody.

86:48Let's bring it home.

86:49Until next year.

86:51Last expect.

86:53Take care.

86:55That was so good.

87:04I was relieved, Master B.

87:10All right.

87:12Are these things on Tableau Public yet?

87:14I think they take a couple of days now.

87:16We're coming to you live from Mandalay Bay,

87:19Las Vegas.

87:20And whoa, what did we just watch, Terry?

87:23It was amazing and more.

87:26That was pretty cool.

87:27Let's see.

87:29I don't think they'll be on public for a

87:31while.

87:32It normally comes a few days later.

87:35I mean, my hand is still sweaty from like

87:37watching that.

87:39All on read one time.

87:41Yes.

87:42I mean, they were all amazing.

87:44And like the talent, the talent.

87:46And for me personally, out of the three,

87:49I really, really like you.

87:51If you have to guess how something's done,

87:52if it leaves you thinking, that's probably

87:54a good sign.

87:55They really push the boundaries.

87:56Of course not.

87:57I'm sure it was not.

87:58But you know, with the torch, it was

87:59amazing.

88:00But Andre, do you know someone called Ald

88:02ino?

88:03I think that's olden.

88:05Yeah.

88:06Saying IT.

88:07Yeah.

88:08I remember that.

88:09It's time to stream and say I'm for

88:10appreciation.

88:12And then obviously the story with Kinley.

88:14That was pretty cool.

88:15Kinley was great.

88:16Well deserved.

88:17I agree, Trina.

88:18Very cool.

88:20How he pulled the full picture in data

88:21and the way you could visualize it from

88:22start to finish.

88:23I mean, that was just-- it was awesome to

88:24watch.

88:25And that's why we do what we do.

88:26And that's how people can make great

88:27decisions

88:28and great actions.

88:29Exactly.

88:30And I think it's just crazy to think

88:31that it's actually three components that

88:33make

88:34a great--

88:35[AUDIO OUT]

88:36--pense.

88:37Right.

88:38So--

88:39Is it--

88:40I'm going to leave the stream now.

88:41It was just actually just really crazy to

88:43be here.

88:43Oh, in person.

88:44Yeah, I'll just focus on that.

88:45So super interesting.

88:48I really like that.

88:49Just a shame about the virtual direction

88:50there.

88:52I think they missed a trick with not

88:54showing us

88:55enough screen sort of--

88:57I think they missed a trick with not

88:58showing us enough screen

89:00sort of--

89:01footage, as it were.

89:04But when they went through the visual

89:05izations,

89:06we did get to see the final vises.

89:08So that was good.

89:09I think the key of IronVis is seeing how it

89:11's built.

89:12That's where we sort of answer all the

89:13questions

89:14about whether or not they're using

89:16parameters or stories.

89:17All of that would have been obvious to us.

89:19And it really sort of showcases how to put

89:21that together.

89:22So if at all possible, I'd love Tableau

89:24to re-edit the footage they've captured

89:27to have something a little bit more

89:28inclusive.

89:29Maybe put out all the three different

89:30screen recordings

89:32if they're captured or something like that.

89:34What you could do is have the main screen,

89:38like where they're doing their Tableau-ing,

89:40and then have what we're doing here

89:42with little faces on the bottom.

89:43Yeah, exactly.

89:44You can actually see, because sometimes the

89:46SuFIS people,

89:47the people that were standing next to them,

89:49they were talking, and the screen was on

89:51them.

89:52And actually, we don't want that.

89:53We want to see all the time the screens.

89:56Let me show you something.

89:57And then if people talk, make them small.

89:59Let me show you what they did last year.

90:01This is what they did last year.

90:03So I'll put it on.

90:05So this is what they did last year, right?

90:07So we had the presenters, because it was

90:10virtual.

90:11Maybe this is why they had to do it.

90:13They had the presenters on the left and the

90:14right.

90:15And we always had a viz showing on the

90:17screen.

90:18And they cycled through the vizs.

90:20But what I think I was suggesting

90:22is this kind of setup where we could

90:24simultaneously

90:25always see the three different perspectives

90:28.

90:28And also, when the judges are speaking,

90:31just having-- there was actually very

90:33little-- here we go.

90:35Let's go back a few seconds here.

90:37Yeah, just there like this.

90:39So even when the judges are speaking, of

90:40course it's virtual.

90:41So maybe that's why this was done this way.

90:43Always having the viz on screen,

90:44essentially, right?

90:46It was his life.

90:47I didn't watch it last year.

90:50I think it was his life.

90:51It was pre-recorded but played as live.

90:55They didn't know the winner until the

90:57actual thing,

91:00if that makes sense.

91:01Yeah, yeah, yeah.

91:02That makes sense, yeah.

91:04So that was 2021.

91:06And then if I go search Iron Viz--

91:11did we have one in 2020?

91:14That was Tableau conference-ish, I think.

91:17That was that separate conference

91:19which was on this new platform that we're

91:21testing out.

91:22I'm not sure.

91:24Let me show 2019 because there, we were in

91:30person.

91:32Yeah, we were in person back then, yeah.

91:34I wonder if maybe we're expecting too much.

91:38Yeah, I think it's--

91:40It's interesting, actually.

91:41Yeah, that's actually the case.

91:43So I don't know if you can see me scr

91:45abbling through the--

91:47This is how I'm sort of watching the video.

91:49I'm just scrabbling through and you can see

91:50there's very little on-screen footage.

91:54Yeah, I think because back then we were in

91:56the audience,

91:57so it was a different experience.

91:59But back then they didn't have to

92:01facilitate a virtual audience, right?

92:04So back then there was no virtual audience,

92:07but this year, the first time, it's like

92:09hybrid.

92:10So I think we need to cut them a little bit

92:12slack.

92:13Yeah, yeah, exactly.

92:14I think I was being overly harsh.

92:17Maybe because we're more virtual now, we're

92:19all sort of higher expectations.

92:20But I've sort of dug into that.

92:22Now I've answered it, I'll keep quiet.

92:26So yeah, really cool.

92:27Really cool Iron Viz.

92:29I'm definitely going to watch it again.

92:30I want to try and see the Vizs once they've

92:32been published on Tableau Public.

92:34It's definitely a good way to try and

92:36understand what's going on

92:38and just see how some of the Vizs work as

92:40well.

92:41So definitely something I'll do.

92:43I'm just going to load up Tableau Public

92:44now.

92:45Seeing as we're here, if you completely

92:48need to Tableau,

92:50let me log in first so you all don't see my

92:52password.

92:53Let me just log in.

92:56For anyone who's expecting great things

92:59from my Tableau Public,

93:02I barely spend time in Tableau Public.

93:04Well, saying that in the Slack channel,

93:06I'm seeing people saying like, "This is

93:07amazing.

93:08I'm really questioning my own Tableau

93:09skills."

93:10But I don't think you should because Table

93:14au is very much first,

93:16a business intelligence tool where you

93:18quickly get answers for your business.

93:21Yeah, exactly.

93:22Plus, Will and all the others have been

93:25practicing.

93:27For years.

93:28I remember for years this.

93:29And also they've been practicing.

93:31I don't know how many sessions they went to

93:32yesterday.

93:33They might have been practicing this in the

93:34hotel rooms the whole time.

93:36I remember that when Heshim was doing that

93:37back in 2019.

93:39So, yeah, I wouldn't see this as being like

93:42,

93:42"Oh, my Tableau Public is not great."

93:44I would definitely see it maybe as an

93:45inspiration to go there.

93:47Exactly.

93:48And if you see something and you're like,

93:50"How on earth has that been built?"

93:52I'm just trying to find CJ's one here.

93:54So this was actually a visit of the day.

93:56So this is what got CJ into the Iron Viz

93:59final.

94:00So if you want to see how this was built,

94:02go to the Viz, number one.

94:04And enjoy the Viz.

94:05Use the Viz.

94:06See the interaction.

94:07Make notes about how you think things work

94:10before you open it.

94:11Because once you open it,

94:12you kind of spot the surprise for yourself.

94:14So make a mental note.

94:15How do you think something works?

94:16Just try and really understand what's on

94:18the Viz.

94:19Then go here to the top right-hand side.

94:22I'm just highlighting it right now.

94:24Just go to that and select "Make a copy."

94:27Now, when you do this,

94:29Tableau Public throws you into the editing

94:31experience.

94:32And once you're there,

94:34you can essentially just start interacting

94:35with it in the browser.

94:37Does this automatically give credit to the

94:39person that you're kind of copying it from?

94:40It does. It does.

94:41When you publish this to your profile,

94:43which you really shouldn't.

94:44You should download it, use it to learn,

94:46and then delete it, whatever.

94:47But if you were to save this on your

94:48profile,

94:49it says "inspired by the original author of

94:52the version that you copied," essentially.

94:54So you can go in here, and now you can see

94:56how everything is built.

94:57So I always recommend breaking down a Viz

95:02by looking at the interaction first,

95:04then understanding the individual

95:05components that drive that interaction.

95:08So there's a lot of text here that's been

95:09designed outside of Tableau.

95:11So if I double-click this text box, it's

95:14actually an image.

95:16So if I go into this sheet,

95:19you'll see there's an intro text overlay.

95:22And is this-- am I making that up?

95:26Or-- it's a background image.

95:30I'm pretty certain that it's the case,

95:32because there's nothing in here.

95:33It's all the way on the--

95:37Is it tiny somewhere that I can't see?

95:40No, it's not behind my light.

95:44I've got a light in front of my screen,

95:45which sounds ridiculous.

95:46But where is this text coming from?

95:49Now I've been-- the first thing I click on.

95:52Paul Manup in the chat is saying that he

95:54wants a Tableau Server edition for the iron

95:57Viz.

95:58Tableau Server edition.

96:00That's a--

96:01Like upgrade a two-node cluster and see

96:03what's happening, right?

96:05That would be a good YouTube series,

96:07actually.

96:08Take four Tableau Server gurus

96:11and then do like a 30-minute troubles

96:13hooting series

96:14and see how they fix the problem and what

96:16they think the problem is.

96:18So just for context, the reason why I've

96:20been stumped

96:21is because there's actually a transparent

96:22sheet in front of the actual text

96:25because this is just a background.

96:27So the text has been laid onto a background

96:29and the visualization is actually over here

96:32.

96:32So there's a little bit of synergy with Fig

96:34ma and legs.

96:36This is probably not the best Viz to start

96:38learning a product, right?

96:40Nothing to discredit it, the visualization.

96:45Here's a fun story. Before I joined the

96:46Information Lab,

96:47actually when I joined the Information Lab,

96:49Tom Brown,

96:50founder and director of the Information Lab

96:52,

96:52told me to go and download and unpick the

96:57last 30 Viz of the days.

97:00And I think he gave me like a week to go

97:02and do it.

97:03So I spent like-- I think I spent five days

97:08just basically opening Viz

97:10just being constantly confused.

97:12And the first two took me about a couple of

97:14hours to get my head around.

97:17But what starts to happen, if you keep

97:18doing that,

97:19after a few days you start to see the same

97:21techniques coming up again and again.

97:22And this is back in Tableau. What were we

97:24on?

97:25Tableau version 7 or something.

97:26So the feature set was nowhere near as

97:27complex,

97:28but even then it took me quite a while to

97:29get to grips with it.

97:31And you do get there.

97:32So you just have to be persistent and sort

97:34of push forward with your approach

97:37and just keep at it and eventually you'll

97:39get there.

97:40So definitely something to do.

97:42Go to Tableau Public, check it out and try

97:43and unpick the Vizs.

97:45Let's have a look at some of the chats.

97:48Yeah.

97:49Someone in the slot asked about the Slack

97:50channel that I keep mentioning.

97:53It's the one if you sign up as a virtual

97:55attendee

97:56and you go to the main website /connect,

98:00there's a way to launch the Slack channel,

98:03which is really useful because they are

98:05linked to the sessions.

98:08So if you click on, say, connect, there's

98:10like a link to go there.

98:12Launch Slack.

98:13And that should then open up all of your

98:15Slack channels.

98:17That's amazing.

98:18But they correspond with the sessions that

98:21are live.

98:22So what I've done, for example, this

98:24afternoon

98:24when the European sessions were going,

98:26I basically have the Slack channel open

98:28and you can see all the comments nicely

98:30coming in.

98:31They change the topic.

98:32It's a really good experience to see all

98:34that.

98:35So this was what I was monitoring while we

98:37were watching this.

98:39Exactly.

98:40It's really good.

98:41And the experience with combining Slack

98:43with watching us

98:45and watching the conference.

98:47I think that next year we need an

98:49integration with Slack

98:51so people can from within Slack comment on

98:53our...

98:54To be honest, Slack just needs to host the

98:56livestream.

98:58It's kind of weird that Slack doesn't have

99:00a livestream hosting capability

99:01that we could all just go into, right?

99:03Slack does have a...

99:04You can share videos, but that's just for

99:07internal working.

99:08It's like a maximum of three minutes, I

99:10think.

99:10You can quickly create videos.

99:12Slack has some really neat features though

99:15that can make building a community a lot

99:17easier.

99:18But it has...

99:20We have 59,700 people in this channel.

99:23So it clearly does have some sort of event-

99:25like capabilities

99:26that can be run as well.

99:28Yeah, so this is linked to the main website

99:30as well.

99:31So people will land on this if they sign up

99:33virtually.

99:34Exactly.

99:35Yeah, it's pretty cool because you can

99:37start pinning things

99:39to the channel as well.

99:40So for example, now you can see yesterday

99:42when we had the problems with the Spanish

99:44translator,

99:45we could see what was going on.

99:47Instant feedback as well from the Tableau

99:48team.

99:49So I think this is a really good experience

99:52to have this Slack channel.

99:54Yeah, it should allow us to create our

99:55channels.

99:56Can we do that?

99:58I'm not sure.

99:59That would be a really cool feature just to

100:01allow us to do that.

100:01There is like...

100:02The cool thing as well, there's like a

100:03Slack channel

100:04called Tableau Product IDs.

100:06So if you click on Add a channel

100:09and then you go to the Product IDs one.

100:11That one.

100:14And then join the channel.

100:15And then you have these workflows at the

100:17bottom.

100:18So if you go to the bottom left, there is

100:19this like plus icon.

100:20And then you can actually submit an actual

100:23idea here.

100:24And then people can reply on that.

100:26So it's all like neatly you fill in a form.

100:28So it's like a Slack workflow that you fill

100:30in.

100:31So yeah, lots of businesses are using this

100:34as well

100:34for like their own internal processes.

100:36But yeah, this is kind of cool to see what

100:41kind of features people want

100:42and product ideas.

100:44What do you want? Do you want Black mode?

100:56I just want to be able to change the canvas

100:59.

100:59I'll change the canvas. Okay.

101:01So just watch it.

101:02That's what they were all doing.

101:04But we all can't see what's going on

101:06because everyone creates a white text

101:07on the white background.

101:08So you have to wait for them to drag it.

101:10So I'm just submitting an idea.

101:12Right.

101:13Well, I'm right here.

101:14So I don't know what if this goes into the

101:16ideas page.

101:17How does this improv impact your work today

101:19?

101:20It doesn't.

101:21At this point, I'm not going to finish

101:22filling this in

101:23because I was hoping it would be a lot less

101:25.

101:25Maybe I can just submit it.

101:26Yeah, you can submit it probably.

101:28Write something. What is your role at your

101:29company?

101:30Yeah, just submit it.

101:31There you go.

101:33And the idea is gone.

101:34So that's pretty neat, right?

101:36Yeah, exactly. Exactly.

101:38So, yeah, be sure to check out some of the

101:40other connection features as well.

101:42There's the community pages as well.

101:45Go to the photo booth.

101:46Let's see what people are doing in the

101:48photo booth.

101:49I love this because I think people take

101:50photos,

101:51but they don't actually realize there's a

101:53central place where they turn up.

101:56So I'll take a photo now and I'll just do

101:57something quick.

101:59Here we go.

102:00Hey, all right.

102:03Okay, there we go.

102:04Accept.

102:05That's going to go straight to the live

102:06stream.

102:07Oh, we've got to customize it, don't we?

102:09So I'll just -- oh, no, it couldn't find me

102:11.

102:12Oh, God, come on.

102:14I think you need a better camera.

102:16I was about to --

102:18If that doesn't work, I'm just going to

102:22give up.

102:23Come on.

102:24There we go.

102:25Here we go.

102:26Oh, wow.

102:27It even cuts out my microphone.

102:29That's some pretty good AI.

102:31That just looks weird.

102:33Anyway, let's just do this.

102:35Let's put Tableau conference destination

102:37data on the top left.

102:40What does it say?

102:42Chart your course.

102:44I'll do that that way.

102:45Okay, submit.

102:47And that should be it.

102:49Gallery.

102:50There we go.

102:51That's what I actually needed.

102:53So here we go.

102:54You can see all the profile pics.

102:56There's some pretty funny ones in here as

102:57well.

102:58So if you keep going back, you'll see dogs

103:00appearing in there as well.

103:02I absolutely love that.

103:03We need a banner for next year saying, "

103:06Watch this at Tim's channel."

103:08[laughter]

103:10That's true.

103:11I should sort of game the photo booth with

103:13just a sign of some sort.

103:16It has to look like a person to the AI,

103:18though.

103:19That would be a pretty tough gig.

103:21But I mean like one of the stickers.

103:23Just one of the stickers that people can

103:24use.

103:25Oh, I see.

103:26This was a serious comment.

103:28[laughter]

103:30You're actually suggesting an idea?

103:32Yeah, I'm suggesting a real idea.

103:33There I am thinking you're taking the mick.

103:35No, no, no.

103:36So many wonderful faces at conferences.

103:39It's great to see the diversity.

103:41It's great to see lots of people, lots of

103:42different places.

103:44And lots of dogs as well.

103:46Lots of dogs, lots of toys, lots of kids.

103:48Love it, love it, love it.

103:50So yeah, get involved with the photo booth

103:52as well.

103:53So let me close that down.

103:55What else should we highlight at conference

103:56?

103:57Obviously the hashtag #Data22.

104:00We've actually loved the live streams as

104:01well.

104:02This is the last live stream that at least

104:03we're doing.

104:04I need to do one more of the VizGala,

104:06which I'll probably do later today at some

104:08point,

104:08really late after I've edited a few videos.

104:11If I go to...

104:13Oh, actually, let me check one thing.

104:16Let me check one thing.

104:17Really, really cool.

104:20I think a video that I uploaded is ready.

104:25So here we go.

104:27So very, very soon, I'm going to make this

104:30video live.

104:31It's the keynote roundup, essentially in 20

104:33minutes.

104:34So I watched the keynote and I've

104:35summarized it in 20 minutes.

104:36I'll be dropping that straight after the

104:37live stream.

104:38So if you want a roundup, you didn't catch

104:40the keynote

104:41or you want to revisit it with time stamps,

104:43we've got that there.

104:44And we've also got the actual live stream

104:48we did yesterday,

104:49the two hour live stream up on the channel.

104:52We've had a thousand views, Andre.

104:54Absolutely epic.

104:54Oh, nice. Excellent.

104:56I sat and I religiously did all the time

104:58stamps

104:59and the notes as well from it.

105:01So if you want to jump around, it's all

105:03there and easy to do.

105:04And we've also got the time stamp here.

105:06So you can jump around to different parts

105:08of the keynote and watch that.

105:09The chat also sort of plays back.

105:12So when you start to watch the video, the

105:14chats will appear here as well.

105:16So that will be cool.

105:17And the same will happen with a stream at

105:18some point this week as well.

105:20So thank you. Good stuff.

105:23So Andre, thank you for joining me this

105:26time around.

105:27Thank you for being a co-host.

105:30It's been absolutely fantastic.

105:31My lights are running out all around me.

105:33I've had them on for so long. This one's

105:34completely gone.

105:35So I lost a couple on the floor behind me

105:40as well.

105:40So we've been streaming for a really,

105:41really long time.

105:43But again, thank you so much for being here

105:47and being a co-host.

105:48This has been really, really fun.

105:49No, this was lots of fun and thanks for

105:51having me on.

105:53Good stuff.

105:55And thanks to everyone in the chat as well.

105:57Really cool.

105:59Good. All right.

106:01Say farewell, everyone.

106:02Thank you for watching.

106:03Thank you for tuning in.

106:0436 of you are still watching, at least on

106:05YouTube.

106:06And wherever else you're watching, thank

106:07you.

106:08Stay tuned for more.

106:09And yeah, catch you soon.

106:11Take it easy.

106:12(silence)
