“…Maeve [36,39] is an interactive multi-touch tabletop application for a museum installation ( Figure 5) that employs a tangible interaction metaphor to enable the manipulation of a network graph, which itself represents the relationships between various architectural projects. When a paper card of a specific project is placed on the tabletop, its associated information structure appears, including media files, keywords, and related projects.…”

Despite typically receiving little emphasis in visualization research, interaction in visualization is the catalyst for the user's dialogue with the data, and, ultimately, the user's actual understanding and insight into this data. There are many possible reasons for this skewed balance between the visual and interactive aspects of a visualization. One reason is that interaction is an intangible concept that is difficult to design, quantify, and evaluate. Unlike for visual design, there are few examples that show visualization practitioners and researchers how to best design the interaction for a new visualization. In this paper, we attempt to address this issue by collecting examples of visualizations with "best-in-class" interaction and using them to extract practical design guidelines for future designers and researchers. We call this concept fluid interaction, and we propose a operational definition in terms of the direct manipulation and embodied interaction paradigms, the psychological concept of "flow", and Norman's gulfs of execution and evaluation.

“…Unlike most existing research articles in information visualization, we also collect exemplars from outside the scientific community, such as from the design, aesthetics, and infographics communities. These "real-world" exemplars include maeve [4,36,39], We Feel Fine [22], and the interactive holographics from the film Iron Man 2 [12].…”

We introduce Venice Unfolding, a case study on tangible geo-visualization on an interactive tabletop to enable the exploration of architectural projects in Venice. Our tangible user interface consists of a large display showing projects on a map, and a polyhedral object to browse these data interactively by selecting and filtering various metadata facets. In this paper we describe a prototype employing new methods to communicate territorial data in visual and tangible ways. The object reduces the barrier between the physical world and virtual data, and eases the understanding of faceted geographical data, enabling urban planners and citizens alike to participate in the discovery and analysis of information referring to the physical world.

“…(Cao et al 2010), and global economic shifts mean that we are beginning to see their deployment in other countries. However, studies of their use in Austria (Nagel et al 2009) and Japan (Mori et al 2010) suggest that tabletop applications that are insensitive to different national settings may not draw out the full value of participants' interactions with them (Hofstede 2001).…”

We present a study of children collaborating around interactive tabletops in three different countries: the United Kingdom, India and Finland. Our data highlights the key distinctive physical strategies used by children when performing collaborative tasks during this study. Children in the UK tend to prefer static positioning with minimal physical contact and simultaneous object movement. Children in India employed dynamic positioning with frequent physical contact and simultaneous object movement. Children in Finland used a mixture of dynamic and static positioning with minimal physical contact and object movement. Our findings indicate the importance of understanding collaboration strategies and behaviours when designing and deploying interactive tabletops in heterogeneous educational environments. We conclude with a discussion on how designers of tabletops for schools can provide opportunities for children in different countries to define and shape their own collaboration strategies for small group learning that take into account their different classroom practices.
