1. A computer implemented method comprising:

  • performing a search based on one or more search terms, the search returning a plurality of search results;

    displaying a first subset of the search results, the first subset not including all of the search results;

    determining that a position of an object located in a multidimensional space has been altered by a user, wherein a first dimension of the multi-dimensional space corresponds to a variation in degree of a first filter criterion and a second dimension of the multi-dimensional space corresponds to a variation in degree of a second filter criterion, and wherein the first and second filter criterion are different from the search terms and are not determined based on the search results;

    identifying a value of the first filter criterion based on the position of the object in the first dimension;

    identifying a value of the second filter criterion based on the position of the object in the second dimension; and

    filtering the search results based on the value of the first filter criterion and based on the value of the second filter criterion to generate a second subset of the search results.
