Abstract
This paper presents research on creating interactive prototypes for visualizing temporal spatial relationships in
fictional literary texts. Developed within the context of the Chronotopic Cartographies project, a practice-led inquiry yielded
dynamic visualizations from literary texts, the research explores the development and application of interactive three-dimensional
environments illustrating the ‘chronotopic’, time-space relationships across a series of fictional literary texts. Expert feedback
highlights the potential of the interaction model as a useful visual paradigm for supporting methods of reflective inquiry
hypothesis making. The work also represents a potential model for creating interactive temporal visualizations which support
hypothesis making across a broader sphere of the humanities.
期刊介绍:
Information Design Journal (IDJ) is a peer reviewed international journal that bridges the gap between research and practice in information design. IDJ is a platform for discussing and improving the design, usability, and overall effectiveness of ‘content put into form’ — of verbal and visual messages shaped to meet the needs of particular audiences. IDJ offers a forum for sharing ideas about the verbal, visual, and typographic design of print and online documents, multimedia presentations, illustrations, signage, interfaces, maps, quantitative displays, websites, and new media. IDJ brings together ways of thinking about creating effective communications for use in contexts such as workplaces, hospitals, airports, banks, schools, or government agencies.
