I don't know if I am missing something obvious. What is the periodicity in these visualization methods? Like I am looking at the 2nd column: cartesian coordinates, line chart, area chart, scatterplot, spectogram. What periodic property is being repeated among them?

There's no periodicity in visualization. The design space of visualization is much more complex the atomic number. Also, this "periodic table" does not show the three main branches of visualization: Information Visualization, Scientific Visualization, and Geographic Visualization. For example, this page gives an overview of time-oriented visualization with meta information like the original paper: https://browser.timeviz.net/ https://browser.timeviz.net/ It also seems to be maintained by people working in that area.

My favorite part is that there is no such thing as a "spectogram" (I assume they mean a "spectrogram"). The whole thing is hilariously bad :) love it.
