Spoiler: only 3 Mexicans have received the award (plus one special mention, hehe). To build this dataviz, I wanted to experiment with D3 and Claude. First, I analyzed the data (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_Mexican\_Nobel\_laureates\_and\_nominees only Laureates, and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_Nobel\_laureates), then wrote the script along with the storyboard. Once I was happy with the storyboard and script, I moved over to Claude and gave it that data alongside the script and storyboard. From there, we started designing the animation using D3 and tweaking things across a couple of iterations. That included fine-tuning small details like transitions and the final scene effect. Once the JavaScript animation was ready, we exported it to MP4. Every single design choice was part of the original vision. Hope you like it, until…
