About: Assignment for Week 3 of Data Representation at ITP | NYU. “Let’s see what you can do with your newfound CSV skills. Pick a data set from the Guardian Data Store and create a simple, static visualization.”

I used the data set from the Guardian’s Datablog : University applications: which subject are up and down?

Notes:I decided to use OOP to better organize the data. I noticed that each subject more could be an object in an ArrayList, rather than having a huge array. This also allows me to remove objects later if needed to focus on certain major cores, like Languages, which contains a variety of majors.

• Feelings Support – Sometimes folks want to tell someone how they are feeling, but don’t have a support group nearby. They want to communicate with a real person, but are afraid of striking conversation with a stranger. With sms, folks get the knowledge of a real person responding with complete privacy. Sometimes one expresses themselves better via text than voice.

How It Works:

• User sends a text with their emotions to a specified number (the server).
• The server finds an available volunteer and relays the message to them.
• The volunteer responds back to a specified number (the server).
• The server relays the message back to the original recipient.

From the top-most layer, it looks as if its Human <—> Human. In reality, its Human <—> Machine <—> Human. The machine in this case plays the role of the phone operator.

In the ideal situation, users would send the keyword “Omen” plus their message to a shortcode. Given the monetary restrictions on getting a shortcode via Twilio, I am using the sandbox number as the ‘shortcode’, and the sandbox id as the keyword in this prototype.
