Abstract

The most effective form of communication is a visual one. Even when we speak we use visual metaphors to help our communication (i.e., to bark up the wrong tree or to push one’s buttons). Focusing on a visual that helps bring attention to the story can also help establish a memory of the story, and this is a key aspect we take into consideration in every visualization we build.
