I created this to experiment with connecting multiple d3.js layouts.

The article inspired me to build a LCF notation parser that would create the graphs using d3.js. Originally, I only planned on displaying the circular graph without animation. &#160;Adding the graph construction animation&#160;was definitely a wow milestone, but, after I enabled the forces on [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.christophermanning.org/projects/building-cubic-hamiltonian-graphs-from-lcf-notation/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Chicago Lobbyists Force-Directed Graph Visualization</title><link>http://www.christophermanning.org/projects/chicago-lobbyists-force-directed-graph-visualization/</link> <comments>http://www.christophermanning.org/projects/chicago-lobbyists-force-directed-graph-visualization/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 20 Jan 2012 22:03:04 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Christopher Manning</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Art]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Projects]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Writing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[chicago]]></category> <category><![CDATA[d3.js]]></category> <category><![CDATA[javascript]]></category> <category><![CDATA[open data]]></category> <category><![CDATA[visualization]]></category><guid
