Good clarification .. it is more than fancy diagrams and pictures.

Here is one that tries to represent the many complex changes we can expect in the Edutech landscape of educational technology over the next 30 years by trying to plot some of the various ideas and dimensions along an extended timeline. Just talking about this kind of stuff is hard to do without dancing or waving your arms about to make connections with current ideas.

Is this an infographic? :)

"An infographic, or information graphic, is designed to convey a huge set of data in a fraction of the time that it takes to wade through a dense, numbers-heavy paragraph. The best ones are also entertaining. According to Stew Langille, the CEO of data visualization start-up Visual.ly<http://Visual.ly>, the average pageview for a newspaper infographic is about 30 times that of a text-based article.

But creating an effective infographic is much more difficult than just arranging a few charts around a cartoon character. It requires graphic designers to tap into their inner data analyst and journalist - to crunch numbers and craft a convincing narrative. Few have all these skills at their fingertips."
