Abstract
The Campfire and the visualization paradigm I have developed based on its form (Concentrical-ly Arranged Multi-surface Projections Focusing Immersive Real-time Exploration aka “CAMPFIRE”) are novel, and provide a form and affordances that inspire new methods for the exploration and structured visualization of data that are immersive and visuo-spatially rich. However, novelty is not a measure of effectiveness. Instructional media, instructional methods and their associated cognitive tasks such as evaluating a graph, chart or other visual information carry loading costs of different types that need to be mitigated and moderated by informed design.
