The visualization will frequently incorrectly show something of the form:

    <--- False     True --->
    True True False False
    True True False False

Yes I saw this on a few "screens" and it really confused me at first. They flashy visuals detract from the message in a variety of ways.

    I normally love the Pudding (getting a pitch accepted would be a high point in my career) but this one is hard to read. So many of the screens give you different colored groups whose sizes are hard to compare.

I thought I just wasn't understanding the visualizations. Glad it wasn't just me.

It also wasn't very clear to me what I was supposed to be noticing in the visualizations that was related to whatever text was currently popped up. In the end I just watched the youtube video that was linked to at the very beginning and it made everything much clearer to me.

I stumbled across this on youtube last night and closed it halfway through when I realized the visualizations didn't make any sense. Clearly a lot of work went into this, how does something so confusing get made?

Also, the visualization let you think that all the leftmost teenagers are the same ones stacking the bad things. That might be true, but I doubt it is. The part around Highschool was especially unclear. Are they the same teenagers getting all the bad stuff. That would be plausible but not to the extend the visual displays I guess.

In other news, I hate that trend of scrolling to animate to get content.

    That's why you can see them run to one place or another

    It's the same cohort of people all the way through and each little character moves according to the survey they filled out each year
