Bret Victor's talk on Drawing Dynamic Visualizations. It argues that visualization tools offer either the directness of hand drawing or the dynamics of programmed graphics, and shows a tool that combines both.

Counted among Bret Victor's best talks and recommended to anyone exploring direct-manipulation tools.
