Mage

Mage is a 3D vector display program which shows "kinemage" graphics. A "kinemage" (kinetic image) is a scientific illustration presented as an interactive computer display. Though originally designed for molecular biology, it can be used to display networks. This application does not have social network analysis capabilities.

The kinemages (network displays) are distributed as plain text files of commented display lists and accompanying explanations.
