We present a conceptual model for interaction in exploratory data visualization systems. This model extends interaction to systems that use geometry, texture, color, and sound to present data to the user. Such systems need to be highly interactive and user centered. We extend interaction to utilize not only geometry, but also color and sound representations of data. Our conceptual model supports interaction in multiple representational spaces. A representational space is a space, such as a color space or a sound space, that is used in the representation of data. The model extends the conventional visualization output pipeline, separating the data from its representations. Interaction operations can be performed on either part of the pipeline.
