After a week spent in Los Angeles, I arrived in San Diego to present the paper “Mapping for Multi-Source Visualization: Scientific Information Retrieval Service (SIRS)”, written with Matina Halkia from a work carried out with Massimiliano Gusmini at the Joint Research Centre, European Commission in Ispra, Italy.

The Human Computer Interaction 2009 is going to be an amazing experience for me, both as person and as researcher. I hope to have the time to publish some news during the following days.

Defining space through content

In the library, books are placed on shelves according to the classification system used. This order helps users in books discovering inside a physical space.

The beautiful example of Valérie gives added value by colors use. The main utility is to relate a gradient of a color to a class, in that way classes can be identified by colors. Besides books labels make volumes uniform. This means that books appear equal even if content is different.

A library is not a bookstore, books here are sored and classified, not sold; they are sought and they are found.

My colleague Daniela and I wrote an article – in Italian – on data visualization that was published on Mokabyte.

This is the last one of a sequence of articles on Processing written by Simone.

Genomic cards for unique people

Catalogtree realized for an American journal a prototype of a genomic card.

This card should be private and would be unique for each person.

This proposal is interesting because it provides a personalized path formed by the DNA where each element has a fixed size according to the type.

This process proposes to supply people with an individual design object, but it seems similar to going back in the past where handmade objects were unique, in a different way.
