Dynamic Visual Identities: from a survey of the state-of-the-art to a model of features and mechanisms
TL;DR: The authors propose a novel model for the analysis of dynamic visual identities, based on the difference between variation mechanisms used to attain dynamism and features achieved, which allows an easy comparison between dynamicVisual identities and the creation of objective categories.
