Visualizing Empires Decline | Visualization et al. This is an experiment with soft bodies using toxi’s verlet springs in Processing. The first idea was to visualize the decline of the maritime empires. Along with that came the idea of fluid and timeless boundaries, and thus some kind of soft bodies dissolution. Those are some screenshots displaying the springs in the system. The data refers to the evolution of the top 4 maritime empires of the 19th and 20th centuries by land extension.
