Some examples of visualisation that I found appealing/interesting:
Food Under the Microscope: Scanning Electron Micrographs of Foodstuffs
Electron micrographs are fascinating to me and although they are not compositions of extracts of data, they are amazing visualisations of the structure of things and also provide insight to explanation of properties and behaviour, the simplest example being organic or processed things.

BevShots Microscope Images
Similar to electron micrographs, BevShots is a company producing photographs of different kinds of alcohol as seen under a microscope. They are mesmerising and every alcohol is different. The images are a fascinating visualisation of the alcohol, their taste, and potential effects.

Daily Infographic
In Googling "infographic", I found dailyinfographic.com and it is awesome. As the name suggests, the site shares a new infographic everyday, a collation of information to teach about a random topic.

iTunes Visualiser
It's like the Windows Media Player visualiser except with a more complex algorithm and therefore better visuals and greater options. The iTunes visualiser is an option within the music platform which shows abstract images to compliment the music being played and of which the theme can be changed if so desired via keystrokes.
