The so called I-space is a virtual reality system for clinical and research applications. It's a physical room where three-dimensional models can be performed so that one can almost literally enter the heart or, as seen in the picture, the human genome.

Just a spontaneous spin-off thought inspired by Susanne’s project on the visualization of epidemiology — I fell across the Information Aesthetics blog with the subtitle “form follows data – towards creative information visualization”. I like the range of creative possibilities, e.g. this pic:

(see the original interactive collage at urlyart.com).
Would this interactive visualization make sense in the popular understanding of epidemiology?
