Connections between events in the world can be better understood with spatial and temporal representation. This world map adapts to the chosen time – allowing one to intuitively browse all dimensions. As an interface for educational purposes, it functions as seen here.

If such an interface were linked to Wikipedia, for example, one could browse its articles through time and space. “Where was what when?” could be directly visually revealed, new connections could be recognized.
Or imagine being able to travel back in time on Google Earth using a timeline.

This student proof of concept includes over 500 info points with text on four world religions.
It was presented in 2017 at the annual student exhibition of the University of Design.
