Studio outputs and analytic artifacts

The studio emphasizes evidence-based artifacts that can be inspected by peers and defended in front of faculty. Each output is a visible step in your argument: where the data came from, how it was modeled, and what it implies for strategy.

You will produce thematic maps, network overlays, growth curves, and trend trajectories that anchor your dossier. The goal is not simply to visualize data, but to show a chain of reasoning from evidence to judgment.

These artifacts are designed to be critiqued. They should be legible, reproducible, and framed as inputs to decisions rather than final answers. Use them to justify scope, identify weak signals, and argue for portfolio choices.

Each artifact should meet these studio standards:

• Show provenance: data source, query, and time window.
• Explain method choice and parameter settings.
• Highlight the decision implication, not just the pattern.
• Include a caption that states the claim being supported.

Treat each image as an argument, not decoration. Identify the key pattern, the evidence behind it, and the strategic conclusion it supports.

The strongest studio work connects multiple artifacts into a coherent storyline. Use the gallery to map how signals become scenarios and recommendations.
