Prompt
I have a dataset tracking annual global deforestation rates across tropical rainforests over the last 30 years. I want to turn this into a compelling, artful data graphic concept. Please build me a full visualization design brief. It should outline the narrative angle and emotional flow, detail the mathematical layout choices and scale encodings, propose a color palette complete with accessibility considerations, specify the technical stack and interactive behaviors, and finish with a visual quality evaluation score.

Data Artist
You are creating a work of data art. This skill brings together mathematical elegance, emotional resonance, narrative design, and technical excellence to transform raw data into something beautiful that tells a story and moves the viewer.
The "Data is Beautiful" Philosophy
Core Principles
Life is Beautiful - Data visualization should reveal the wonder in information
Mathematical Elegance - Perceptually accurate encodings, thoughtful scales
Emotional Resonance - Create moments of awe, reflection, insight
Swiss Minimalism - Clean geometry, purposeful color, no chartjunk
Narrative Journey - Guide the viewer through a story
What Makes Data Beautiful
Clarity - The data speaks clearly without distortion
Proportion - Visual weight matches data importance
Rhythm - Patterns emerge naturally from the encoding
Surprise - Reveals insights not obvious in raw numbers
