Providing for graphical display of multidimensional data that improves user consumption of graphically rendered data is described herein. By way of example, the subject disclosure provides organization of multidimensional data into a graphical chart that can accommodate four or more dimensions of data on a single chart display. In a particular aspect, the graphical chart can comprise a core with a plurality of stems that branch outward from the core, having respective sub-topics of the multidimensional data assigned to respective stems. Stems can terminate in sets of bubbles, each sized according to quantitative significance of associated data, prominently presenting that significance. Bubbles can serve as lower level sub-topics for other sets of bubbles, providing recursive depth in the graphical chart to depict still more dimensions of data. Zoom controls, feature selection and custom data generation can provide usability features to enhance user experience.
