After browsing round the internet I gathered a portion of what was hundreds of infographic timelines of Albert Einstein’s life.

A large amount of them were very text-heavy, something I want to steer away from as less text with an image is more effective then a paragraph.

I wanted to relate my timeline to Einstein’s theory of relativity so thought again about his work. His revelation of ‘light travels faster than sound’ got me thinking about space, light and sound. From this little brainstorm, I developed the idea of my timeline being centred around a dash of light from space (a comet, shooting star, fire ball etc) and the top of the light will be his birth and the bottom being his death, with major events in his life going down the light source.
