Hannah, your image of the data thugger and Angela your images of people too, made me think of how you could portray the emotion of your research as an atmosphere, in a more abstract way. I was thinking about the bookcover on affect called the Hundreds by Lauren Berlant and Kathleen Stewart.
The cover is made by an artist who happens to be a pupeteer and animator, it's a still from an installation, Rather than depict the number "hundreds" the cover captures a mood or an atmosphere.
