Abstract

In this paper a new visual interface tool, enabling knowledge workers to use a highly flexible visual map to represent and refine their current understanding of a task, is proposed. For demonstration purposes, a web information gathering task is used, but the concept is not limited to web tasks only. For the proposed visualization a metaphor based on fluids, cell structure and soap bubbles is derived from experiments with natural physical substances. The resulting visual interface allows the user to pin down associations and to clarify anticipations of relations visually.
