Spatialising Web Content - Demonstration of a project by Brygg Ulmer, MIT Media Lab 1995.

 

Brygg Ullmer

 
 Brygg Ullmer describes to me his project which seeks to "Spatialise" web content. He demonstrates a urban based web navigation metaphor based system which enables users to 'commute' to clusters of related web sites at the end of 'monorail' tracks. The clusters of web sites are shows as 3D shapes and to the user resemble strip malls. (6:27 mins)
