Maeda's Calendar 1

Digital media allows for dynamic generation of timelines and navigating through time to focus on one area or another. Although the digital media affords new types of designs, because these visualizations are often used for more than one application, there is less focus on relating events pictured to one another.

In his early experiments on time, John Maeda created calendars that were meditations on time itself. Some of the methods he used were later employed to display data within a dynamic time visualization.
