Exporting the past into the future, or, “The Possibility Jelly lives on the hypersurface of the present” « Magical Nihilism

Lots to chew on in this post on location based services by Matt Jones. I think predictive modelling of the future using past location data is an interesting avenue of exploration. The hardest problem, as far as I’m concerned, is how to communicate the ambiguity and potential multiplicity of said future in visualizations?
