The project investigated new ways of displaying and interacting with networked data through a rhizomatic navigation system. Consisting of a web-based application connected to the delicious.com (bookmarking website) network, the application generated a navigable visualization of a user's bookmark database based on the serendipitous selection of one input link as a starting point. Each node on the map consisted of a link related trough a random selection of its assigned tags. The spatial positioning of the nodes was dictated by the degrees of proximity among subjects and the amount of assigned tags.
