Nonsensical Infographics by Chad Hagen

The science of infographics is an interesting beast. Infographics' level of success is always based on how much and how well they communicate their data—the classic form follows function. In this series, I reversed these roles—form is king and dictates what the infographic communicates. Welcome to the world of fictional visual information.

Illustrator Greg Peltz continues to wow, this time with his series of Victorian Star Wars Portraits. This brings-back memories of the 80's, when there were Victorian-themed photographers in the mall (or King's Island), where the whole family would dress-up for a sepia photo. Good times.

 I stumbled-onto Peat Wollaeger's work when I was googling "Mexican Wrestling Masks" (don't ask), and after landing on his collection on Flickr, I spent the next 30 minutes thrilled. 

Thanks for the distraction, Peat.
