Presented at SUPERWEEK 2014, Caleb Whitmore makes the case that, as digital analysts, we're really more data artists than data scientists because. Caleb explains how he sees data as simply a means of understanding human interactions and that by analyzing the data of those interactions we (analysts) can better understand people and help to ultimately solve their problems. As the the argument goes, this process is more artistic and creative than scientific.
