1. A method of organizing event data using a computer system, the method comprising:

  • identifying a first timestamp in a primary timeline, the primary timeline corresponding to a representation of event data obtained from one or more sources;

    searching, via the computer system, for a first subset of the event data within a first radius, the first radius being a selected period of time from the first timestamp;

    generating, via the computer system, a first wrinkle timeline incorporating the first subset of the event data, the first wrinkle timeline being a subset of the primary timeline;

    identifying, via the computer system, a second timestamp within the event data;

    searching, via the computer system, for a second subset of the event data within a second radius, the second radius being a selected period of time from the second timestamp;

    copying the second subset of the event data into the first wrinkle timeline when the second subset of the event data associated with the second timestamp is determined to be absent from the first wrinkle timeline; and

    generating one or more displayable images of the event data associated with the first wrinkle timeline after copying the second subset of the event data,wherein the second subset of the event data differing from the first subset of the event data and the first wrinkle timeline including the first subset of the event data before copying the second subset of the event data into the first wrinkle timeline.
