We propose a radial method for visualizing time-series data on mobile devices. We display a single "snapshot" of the data at a given moment in time, and allow the user to easily navigate forwards and backwards in time to view other snapshots. Transitions from one snapshot to another are smoothly animated to preserve context. As a proof of concept of this idea, we have implemented U.S. Supreme Court, a mobile app that lets users visualize the membership of the United States Supreme Court at any date in history.
