The Compromise

Within the project-group it became gradually clear that the navigational aspects of concept geometry presented too many problems to resolve within the 2-dimensional setting that we were working in. We therefore reached a sort of compromise, based on an idea that Bosse had picked up from a CD-rom presentation, and which allowed us to stay within the same presentation map, while browsing the contents on different levels. Together with the idea of a scrollable plane that wrapped around both horizontally and vertically, this formed the basis for the third prototype, the development of which is described in the group-report [(99)].
