Abstract
A system stores visual content in a computer storage device, and displays the visual content on a display unit in an undistorted projection in an overview mode. The system receives input from a user to focus on a specific topic in the undistorted projection, and converts the undistorted projection into a distorted projection that focuses on the topic selected by the user. The system then displays a relatedness, using geometric proximity, between the selected topic and one or more other topics in the distorted projection.
