Gradient Goblet

A wide symmetrical goblet shape. Along each side of the goblet are 10 small squares, each representing an author. For instance, a square on the right is labeled “Anne Bradstreet” and a square on the left is labeled “Lev Vygotsky.” The pairs of squares (one on the left, one on the right) are different distances apart (representing their Matchmaker Scores) and in descending order in terms of distance.That the goblet is wide--i.e., that the distance between the squares on the left and the squares on the right, until the last two pairs (the “bottom” of the goblet), is large--indicates that the Matchmaker Scores between the pairs of authors is high. This is visually indicated by a color gradient that goes from right to left; the left edge and right edge of the goblet, especially at the top (where the distances are greatest) have very different hues, while toward the center of the goblet the colors are more murky (a blend between the two poles of the gradient)
