🔗 The Pudding is an independent digital publication that explains complex ideas through visual essays. Instead of traditional articles, the team creates interactive narratives where data, charts, and animations form the backbone of storytelling.
Each essay is a standalone project, combining research, design, and coding. The topics range from culture and science to technology and everyday life – exploring language trends, music, film, and social media. In every case, data is the starting point for building an engaging visual story.
Key features of The Pudding:
- innovative form: data and visuals are integral to the narrative,
- interactivity: readers explore the story by interacting with charts and animations,
- openness: many projects share code and methodology,
- independence: ad-light, focused on quality and creativity.
The Pudding also organizes the Pudding Cup, an award celebrating outstanding data visualizations worldwide. This makes it not only a publication but also a hub for the data-viz community.
It is a project that blends education, art, and technology in a unique way. The Pudding fits perfectly into the Cogimator directory as an example of experimental and innovative web culture.
