hello everybody,
i am new to this list and very beginner with fluxus, although i admire it
since long.

i am mailing this list because i need some help in developing a fluxus
script to display and visualize information in a database of metadata.
the metatada system is organized in entities and the entities may have
relations among themselves; these are either semantic or genetic.

what i would like fluxus and the script to do is to display those entities
in some symbolic way (even with a dot) in a sort of virtual space (the
world populated by those entities), and lines should connect those
dots/spheres whereas there is a relation among them, so to say red lines
with a vector for genetic, and white (or whatever) for semantic.

this visualization is part of a simple software project, the whole thing
is a prototype so the database will be rather small.

this system of graphs should be running in real-time, and when a new
entity or a new relation is created in the database, that should appear in
the visualized virtual world.

the work, including *hopefully* the fluxus script, will be displayed in a
gallery in london pretty soon.

i am happy to get my hands dirty but i need help from somebody experienced
so to speed up the development.

please contact me off list if you are interested and you think you can
help achieving that, i live in london but working from a distance,
although not ideal, is also welcome.

a report will be sent on this list when the project is ready.

best wishes,
xname
