Nicholas Felton is the excellent designer and infographic maestro behind the Feltron Annual Report, a printed book that Nicholas self-publishes presenting statistics about the past year of his life. Everything from streets walked to number of times he listened to a song to how many alcoholic drinks he had per day laid out beautifully, like the image above from the 2006 report. It’s incredible.

We had the chance to meet Nicholas recently, and we got to talking about how his visual approach to statistics could be applied to Kickstarter. The huge opportunity Kickstarter presented was immediately obvious — we have so much data flowing through our system that could be so useful and so much fun for everyone… if only we could just present it in the right way.

Which brings us to Feltron vs. Kickstarter, a project that — if funded — will bring in Nicholas’ time and brain power to spruce up our infographic look. (Not to mention secret DNA testing to clone his Shaolin techniques.) Backers have the option of project updates ($1), a very cool on-site profile badge ($10), a gold, limited-edition Kickstarter button ($20), the Feltron Annual Report ($30), and to be on the design calls as we decide what to do ($100).

And because it’s Kickstarter, it’s all or nothing. We get no special treatment. So if you’d like to see Nicholas’ work on Kickstarter, we humbly ask for your support. Thanks!
