The information explosion has made much more knowledge available to everyone, but knowing what is available and finding what is relevant in this mass is difficult. This project seeks to improve the design of information spaces by better making use of our spatial cognition and visual perception. Examples of our approach include information spaces for journal articles, MIT EECS classes, questions and answers, and movies. We are extending this approach to visualize other domains such as object-oriented software programs.
