## Using the kinetic map
There are two ways to interact with the *Movement and Common Worlds* map application. The first is through the Stories. Start at the 'Overview' and simply scroll downwards slowly. The map display changes to complement the accompanying text and images. The second mode allows you to explore freely, using a set of filters to see information captured from specific maps.
