From Overwhelming Data to Insightful Metadata

The artwork represents the complex nature of metadata-research. It captures the thought of metadata being a double-edged sword. On one hand, the studies sailing through the air depict that metadata can be overwhelming due to the sheer volume of data that is generated every day. But on the other hand, once organised correctly into piles through meta-research, metadata can be useful to identify patterns and trends across multiple studies.
