Flower of multicolour clusters

Flower Hamaspyur

Flower Hamaspyur is a new type of folksonomy system with multimodal interaction interfaces for multidimensional social media.

The information framework collects and organizes data using ontologies and taxonomies collaboratively created by the communities of different interest domains.

The interactive interfaces, mainly targeted towards mobile devices with limited screen area and with direct touch interaction, provide intuitive navigation for such multidimensional structured information.

Design

Flower Hamaspyur - is a mythical flower. In middle age Armenia it was mentioned as a symbol of since, wisdom and eternal youth, and its fragrance as having healing and vitalizing characters. It has 12 petals/branches with different colors for different directions of science/life, and from each opens a new flower again with 12 petals/branches. In Armenian the word Hamaspyur has the same meaning as the word Diaspora - spread all around. Its petroglyphs are found in mountains. It is mentioned in the works of A. Shirkatsi, in Rigveda as Soma (Haoma), it is related to the "Flower of Life" sacred geometry pattern.

The back-end framework organizes information using ontologies, taxonomies and social graphs from specific domains.
The front-end UI/UX is based on open standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format to create two-dimensional interactive graphics (e.g. domains of community interests represented with multi-color nested clusters), and Web-based Graphics Library (WebGL) to generate interactive 3D objects which are accessible within any compatible web browser.

A prototype example is presented in Flower Hamaspyur.
