Tracking the imperceptible: Designs to visualise time dilation (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Buzzo, D., & Jonas, D. (2016, May). Tracking the imperceptible: Designs to visualise time dilation. Paper presented at ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI), San Jose, CA, USA

In our project we developed TimeTravel, a design for visualising personal time dilation. Time dilation is the effect on time that movement in space produces. Predicted by Einstein’s Special theory of relativity (1905) and verified by practical experi... Read More about Tracking the imperceptible: Designs to visualise time dilation.
