Visualising Zeus’s infidelities: the Greek god’s affairs as chronicled over the centuries, laid out as a graphic by John Burn-Murdoch.
From the post:
A team of data-visualisation designers have created a fascinating graphic representation of the genealogy of Greek god Zeus. Dozens of authors have chronicled his relationships and offspring, with some of his lovers and children cited consistently, and others mentioned only in one or two accounts. Zeus is represented by the thick black lines, with his siblings and ancestors in the inner circles and offspring in the outer rings. Zeus and his lovers are on the inside of each line, with their children on the outside. Each coloured line refers to one author’s account. Click a name for more details, or an author to view only the affairs they mentioned.
See the post for the graphic, its authors and further information.
Raises all sorts of interesting possibilities doesn’t it?
