"Interactive visualizations based on the Eigenfactor™ Metrics and hierarchical clustering to explore emerging patterns in citation networks."
I think the interactive nature of these really helps to separate the data and access the bits that the audience wants to know. It also means there are a whole range of visuals for the one thing and it becomes much more in depth. The lines and flow of them are really elegant. I can't help thinking though that there are so many of these infographics that are based on circles and connecting lines that when you first see it you know it's going to be something about a network or connections but the actual subject of it isn't very clear and even now I'm not sure what it shows other than maybe books referenced or something?
Also this really annoys me:
Why do the words have to overlap each other? It just means that while you're on one section you have to basically guess or start from the beginning to move onto something else. I can understand why they're greyed out but I don't understand why they overlap. Also I can't tell if they're for the rest of the diagram or whether they are actually part of that section.
