Evolving
I had some time, and I went through some evolutions today.
I first started playing with the line work both in vertical and horizontal. I think this presents a cleaner look than the dots with the thin line and then the thick line… But the thicknesses don’t mean anything. I think I’m trying to force the genomic aspect of the design without a definite utility.
So, I went back to a combination of the two interfaces, blending the spore type with the line type. I like the simplicity of the image below, and the ability to likely flick the screen left and right to get to the memory that you want to see.
Then I started to play with removing the “bud” altogether and simplifying the presentation to lines and transparencies. While I like the look below, I think that the horizontal timeline isn’t as good as a vertical one.
