Determining Human Behavior

The Power of Visualization

Visualization of Data essential for Understanding

Pulse of Attention Data vs. Graph

Computer Visualization Mainstream Science

Mandelbrot's Fractal Geometry based in Computer Computation and Visualization

JPL's Space Program employs a graphic visualizer

Computer data generation and visualization essential for Living Algorithm Project

Visual nature of Project’s Methodology increases accessibility

Visual Processing is the best way to comprehend data.

Could Graphic Visualizations access Subconscious Power?

Subconscious perceives Pattern; Intellect verbalizes it

Example: Mathematicians & Physicists

Subconscious communicates to Consciousness via Visions

Visualization precedes Conceptualization

Examples where visual understanding precedes abstraction: 1) Evolution

2) Language acquisition

Einstein's summary: Verbalization a secondary stage

Project Methodology taps into Subconscious’ Powerful Pattern Recognizing Ability

Current task: Translating Subconscious Insight into Conscious Understanding

Author's personal experience with translating Insight into Understanding

Visual Information requires language for transmission to a wider audience
