Timeline Research

Time lines are a useful way to look into the past and have been seen in many forms. Some are over complicated, trying to give so much information on one page, others are over simplified, not giving enough information. When creating time lines on paper, it can be very difficult to find the appropriate information. The history of the planet is often shown over many time lines to which focus on just one part of our past.

Creating a time line with the realms of CG means it can be infinite. One space can house all the information of the worlds history without taking up to much physical space, (the same my not be said for virtual space, as it will depend on size of your hard drive memory). There are also rules to say that time lines have to be liner, paper creates restrictions when building time lines as paper is generally 2 dimensional, CG can bring a 3rd dimension to space it occupies.
