DEEP FIELD FORAGER

Exploratory data analysis using science fiction film data retrieved from Wikidata.

Constellation

The films in the Browse filter above shown as bodies in a many-body simulation. They push each other apart; a shared director, a sequel, a common source or a cited influence pulls them together, so families of films gather into clusters. Change the filter and the constellation reorganizes.

Lineage

What a film was drawn from and what it led to: the novel it adapts, the film it follows, the work that inspired it, and everything two steps out from there. Pick any work to put it at the center.
