A computer implemented method of storing, manipulating, assessing, and displaying data and its relationships, and a computer system (with memory) programmed to implement such method. The data are stored as linked nodes, and can be visualized as a displayed sea of node representations. Interactions with the user organize the data from a defined, and then refined, point of view, with relevant data preferably brought to the user's attention by smooth changes in the displayed appearance of the data. The data (stored as linked nodes) can be queried by establishing a first point of view and displaying representations of the nodes as a sea of node representations whose point of view is the first point of view, and responding to a command (which determines a query) by displaying a changed sea of node representations which emphasizes information having greater relevance, and deemphasizes information having less relevance, to the query.
