Hieronymus Bosch - Butt Music!

Hieronymus Bosch's painting "The Garden of Earthly Delights" - is a masterpiece and truly the work of a mad genius. Strange folks emerge from eggs, defecate flutes and seemingly contort in sinful delight across the three panels.


Well what the heck does that have to do with Infographics?!
One small figure has music written across their butt - truly one of the most unique data visualizations ever, but nevertheless it is an infographic!

But no that's not even the punch line - folks have actually arranged and recorded this composition - Hieronymus would have been proud to hear his butt piece performed!

Judgmental Maps (Funny)

Sheet Music


Musical Notation can actually be considered an infographic. Like a map or graph, each element (staff, clef, note, articulation marking, etc.) is a symbol and combined together they make up a visualization of the musical sound.

For those of you who know music notation, these will be pretty funny...
