Dr. Setlur's exploration of functional aesthetics in visual analysis is truly illuminating, highlighting how perceptual encoding can significantly enhance data comprehension. The synergy between multimodal interaction and AI-powered language models opens exciting avenues for "data storytelling," enabling us to weave narratives that resonate deeply with human cognition. Given her expertise in this domain, what are your thoughts on leveraging "affordance mapping" techniques to design interactive visualizations that intuitively guide users through complex datasets, particularly in the realm of scientific discovery?
