Visualizing data structure in Processing.

Second year course on displaying information in a 3-dimensional space. Using Processing, we were tasks to visualize the structure of a computer folder as well as any data within the folders. Our team decided to use concentric circles and a node tree to visualize the underlying data structure. Arcs from folder (nodes) indicate files. The file size influences the arcs amplitude. The visualization can be freely manipulated in 3d space (pan, zoom, rotate) and individual parts of the visualization can be toggled ON and OFF.
