This is Paul Ford’s insightful and poignant keynote talk for the 2012 graduating class of the Interaction Design MFA program at the School of Visual Arts.
I’ve been haunted by these lines:
“I can never remember if we are supposed to live each day as it were our last, or if it’s the first day of the rest of our lives. It’s hard to tell sometimes. We make movies about it over and over again. … Of course these movies are made by people who are totally dedicated to making films. They give up their lives and neglect their children to make movies about the value of family.”

The FBI Uniform Crime Report and/or NIBRS may be the most comprehensive/granular data there is on homicides nationwide, but I don't think there's incident-level geography:

Counting homicides, and even determining what exactly is a homicide, is not as clear as one might think:

Not that many agencies post the data themselves. Surprisingly, the NYPD does post it as part of their felonies dataset: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/NYPD-7-Major-Felony-Incide…
