Phase 02
CLARIFY
- make the system understandable, intelligible, and transparent. Communicate in a simple, effective ay, the network visualizations become powerful means for information processing and understanding

REVEAL - Find a hidden pattern in or explicit new insight into the system, or in other words, a polished gem of knowledge from a flat data set.

EXPAND - Serve as a vehicle for other uses and set the stage for further exploration. This simple structure might become a complementary part of a larger work, ie. Map 01 or Map 02

ABSTRACT - Explore the networked schema as a platform for abstract representation [Quantitative or Qualitative Map]
Network visualization can be a vehicle for hypothetical and metaphorical expression, depicting a variety of intangible
concepts that might not even rely on an existing data set

ABOUT THE BACKGROUND IMAGE:
The graphic is from Hartman Salt's GREATER FOD CULTURE.
http://www.hartmansalt.com/food-culture-analyzed/greater-food-culture/228
“In the spirit of celebrating contemporary food culture, this subway-style map is intended to serve as a snapshot of the main actors, techniques, values and ideas representing today’s culinary zeitgeist. From chefs and the media, to packaged goods and food politics, these “stops” are suggestive of the people, places and things that have influenced the food world (some more directly than others), thereby becoming part of our Greater Food Culture. Take a ride on the Modern Line, stopping off at Thomas Keller and then maybe head onto the Global Line, paying a visit to David Chang. Wherever you go, you’re likely to learn a bit, be entertained and most certainly eat quite well.”
