About Pool Liburu Azala

Liburuko Testua: Pool zientzia-argitalpen baterako sortutako azal interaktibo bat da. Diseinuak alga-formak berrinterpretatzen ditu karaktere txinatarren bidez, eta hainbat alga-forma azalean zehar kokatuta daude irakurleak berehala gaiarekin konektatu ahal izateko. Alga mota ezberdinen marrazkiak barniz puntuz estalita daude, honek ur-isla eta testura errealista bat sortzen dituelarik. Marrazkiak azal osoan zehar hedatzen dira, algaz betetako urmael baten irudia osatzeko. Hori neonezko eta berdexka tonuek algen aniztasuna erakusten dute. Barruko azaleko lotura-galdetegi txiki batek irakurleei algen izenak ikasteko aukera ematen die.
