Enhanced Family Tree: Evolving Research and Expression Overview
SIGGRAPH 2020 Art Papers – ACM SIGGRAPH
Enhanced Family Tree reimagines the possibilities of family trees with an evolving series of exhibits. The authors’ works combine genealogical data, visualization, 3D technologies and interactivity to explore and display ancient genealogical relationships. Their new approach may reveal questionable relationships in genealogical records. Moreover, the authors’ use of an organic metaphor of a “tree” can be further extended to increase public understanding and engagement. The audience’s questions arising from this project show increased curiosity and nuanced questioning about their own family origins and development.
