Our task was to implement a prototype of a conversation landscape visualisation.

Conversation Landscapes are a method to visualize archives of Chats. In this 2D modell, chat user are arranged along the x axis and the y axis represent time. The horizontal lines are postings, a longer line represents a longer posting. If you mouseover a horizontal line the color changes and the text of the posting is shown above the Charts.

The viewer can easily read out the time between postings as periods of silence. Convesation Landscapes show the interaction patterns of the conversation at a glance, flurries of animated discussion are as easily readable as logins and logouts.
