an aesthetic data visualisation designed to allow users to search intuitively through content of 7 million text documents by reconfiguring histograms used by common search engines. a histogram of words & their corresponding weights relative to a given set of documents is ordered to cluster loosely defined concepts, & then wrapped around a point. the resulting circular histograms can then be used to compare features between tens of documents in a single frame. see also parsing the state of the union.
