1. A computer-implemented method comprising:

  • rendering, by a processor, an interface comprising a synopsis node and a plurality of configurable component nodes, each of the component nodes corresponding to a respective color, and the synopsis node having a color that is a combination of the colors of the component nodes, the component nodes extending in a radial manner from the synopsis node, wherein each component node is associated with a halo, the halo having a halo color that corresponds to the color associated with the component node, the halo having a radius that corresponds to a distance between the component node and the synopsis node and a luminosity of the halo color that corresponds to the distance;

    receiving, by the processor, input changing an influence of a color of a first component node on the color of the synopsis node by;

    moving the first component node closer to the synopsis node to increase the influence of the first component node on the synopsis node color;

    ormoving the first component node farther from the synopsis node to decrease the influence of the first component node on the synopsis node color;

    determining, by the processor, a change in the color of the synopsis node based on the received input, the changed color representing a combination of the colors of the component nodes, wherein the respective distances of the component nodes from the synopsis node are used to determine influences of the respective colors of the component nodes on the synopsis node color, wherein component nodes closer to synopsis node are more influential than component nodes that are farther from the synopsis node; and

    rendering, by the processor, the changed synopsis node color in the synopsis node.
