The Sunlight Foundation has announced the winners in its Design for America contest, where the public were invited find cool things to do with the US government's open data feeds. They had 72 entries, all extremely clever and provocative.
The transformation of complex process into great imagery was also something we hoped for here at Sunlight. The "How A Bill Becomes a Law" category didn't disappoint. Every entry in this category was amazing. The one that won in the end was the one that combined beauty with complexity. It's beautiful, and too big to embed on this blog. But check out the whole thing. It's amazing.The Design for America Winners (Thanks, Nicko!)
