Exploring Bisociation and Imagination in Rapid Visualization Selection Processes
In a fast-paced selection process, driven by a constant stream of visualizations, novel patterns of meaning no longer arise solely through logical or formal criteria, but rather through a process of negotiation. The user links their reflective process directly with the visualization and concurrently adapts to ongoing suggestions for modification. These modifications facilitate bisociation, similar to Kekule’s famous bisociation process in the invention of the benzene ring. Reflection processes and visualizations intersect, resulting in a unique imaginative quality.
