BEYOND GRAPHS OR CHARTS: VISUALISING WEB STATISTICS WITH NATURAL DISPLAYS IN PHYSICAL SPACE

Screen-based graphs, charts or diagrams help us to understand how visitors make use of a website. Yet, while we experience the world around us with all our senses this experience is mostly introspect and intellectual. It does not address our other senses, such as hearing or touch and conveys even less of the experience of being visited. It is more visual and informative then sensual or aesthetic. This research investigates ways of “visualising” the current presence of visitors of a website beyond the screen as an experience in physical space in an application of calm technology with a natural display.
