the prototype of the time beam

# We congratulate Kira von Horsten to her bachelor-thesis!

Under the topic "Time beam visualization within the historytellingsystem" Kira von Horsten developed the design for a visualization of the event representation with the LEAN UX (Gothelf & Seiden 2013) approach. Prototypes were created in three iterations and evaluated with potential users. The resulting clickable prototype provides the ability to display stories on a timeline sorted by date. The display is made by a suitable picture. The stories can be linked to other stories by the same author or to stories from the same location. Kira von Horsten designs a pinboard for stories without dates. Stories without time can be displayed here. If a date is subsequently entered, the story is sorted into the timeline.
