It's cute & flashy but when you actually try to read it (as pointed
out by others, here) some of it doesn't make sense (the color key for
example, and "energy expended"(?)). If this is -- as I would use it
if I were him -- an example of his ability to convey useful
information, it fails, for the most part. Art: B+. Ability to convey
useful information: D.

It does, however, remind me of (and pays homage to) the seminal work
of Charles Joseph Minard -- possibly the father of modern
"infographics" -- particularly his 1869 informational display of
Napoleon's devastating march to Moscow in the winter of 1812-13:

But, as I said, lacking the useful-information part. ;-)
