This legendary Spanish cultural institution treasures thousands of letters written by the leading figures of Spanish culture during the 'La Edad de Plata', a period of rich intellectual expansion during the first decades of the 20th century in Spain.
The institution, that has already digitized and marked up the letters, request us to create a visual tool to explore a set of them. I designed and developed a data visualization that includes two force layout versions, a classic one for the general view and a beeswarm to show every person's correspondence. The visualization also features timelines that act as filters, and a final view where you can read the entire conversation and be delighted by the way they used to write.
