With my concept I want to give a picture of all the weapons in the collection that come from japan. I do this by means of an interactive bubble chart in which the size of the bubble shows how many objects there are in each category compared to the other bubbles.
When the visitor selects a bubble, the visitor receives a selection of the weapons that are in it. With this I give the visitor a picture of the use of weapons in japan and the visitor can actually see the weapons.
