		<description>Interesting stuff. 

The key points I work from are 
- understand your own goals, and what you&#039;re trying to communicate
- understand what the needs and contexts of your audience are

I believe that those are the most relevant considerations when designing good visualizations. He&#039;s coming from an experimental place, so it&#039;s all research and all about exploration, which makes the second point moot. 

With a clear idea of what your priorities are, the issue of multidimensional data can reduce itself. You start with figuring out how to represent the most important parts, and the rest, ideally, falls into place or becomes irrelevant.

People interested in techniques for effective information visualization might enjoy my &lt;a href=&quot;http://complexdiagrams.com/2007/10/12/generation-of-complex-diagrams-how-to-make-spaghetti-instead-of-lasagne/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;thesis&lt;/a&gt;.
