This data animation commissioned by Vox.com and produced in partnership with Veterans Coming Home, a cross-platform public media initiative made possible by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, shows how the burdens of war are shouldered by fewer Americans than ever before. EDLUNDART designed a 3D environment that could accommodate and move the viewer through different types of storytelling, including charts and video, but the core feature is a visualization of 100 dots representing 100% of the U.S. population. The dots move around and transform to show how many people served in the military through history.
