Abstract

This paper introduces a touch-sensitive two-dimensional scatter plot visualization, to explore and analyze movie data. The design focuses on the ability to work co-located with several users. These are able to create several focus regions through distortion techniques triggered by multi touch gestures. Furthermore, the introduced visualization is an example how promising concepts from InfoVis research can be transferred onto multi touch tables in order to offer more natural interaction.
