[en] Poster presenting a research project where we explored the history of a 1980s Belgian micro-computer named the DAI through the lens of an interactive map. We use geocoded addresses of readers from two hobbyist magazines, DAInamic and DAIclic, to visualize the life of this device through a map. This interactive map allows us to grasp complex information while avoiding reducing its qualitative nature and to gain new insight into this corpus for further research.
