choosing representations
static representation _ trade-off
interaction reduces trade-off
- stacking histogram
- overview vs. detail
- etc. etc. etc.
Notes:
with interactive representations we can manage these tradeoffs dynamically - allowing the user some degree of freedom to move between multiple representations
stacking histogram - user can choose baseline, could also perhaps allow the user to change the order of the categories
overview vs detail - simple highlighting of selected categories can give detail to congested scatter plots
hopefully, you can see many situations where simple interaction can be added to give the user more choice on how the data is analysed
