Quotes:

• "We’re not doing dashboards anymore."
  
• "If this is where the future is, then what are you going to do?"
  
• "It popped into my mind the concept of doing magic with data. And it wasn’t about what we would do, it was about what people would see. We needed to make people excited about it, we needed to make people think it was magic and want to see more, to sparkle the curiosity that magicians do."
