Abstract

"God is in the details."In the world of design, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's famous dictum regarding the importance of details in one's work has been the mantra for designers in various professions from architecture to new media.But what if God is literally the detail?The Gospel Spectrum is an interactive application exploring the story of Jesus Christ, who many believe is the Son of God, based on the dissection of the Gospels, the four books in the Bible-- Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John--that recount the story of Jesus' life from four different viewpoints. The Gospel Spectrum creates new insights on the narrative by employing principles of computational media and data visualization to deconstruct and then visually reconstruct the story.
