Final Year Studio - Research - Data Visualisation - Deconstruct 2D 3D

Above is a snap shot image from a little Processing application that investigates into the idea of two and three dimensional space. First of all as you randomly click the 2D image the initial plotting points change, but still radiate from the centre. Then as you press the direction keys the graphic starts spinning on various axis and the nodes start carving the now 3D space up using lines.

It doesn't actually map any kind of data, but I just thought it was a beautiful way of plotting points in 3D space. As it spins it almost takes on a planet like character and the nodes spinning around the centre create an orbital sense of being.
