Does this make sense?

Mats:

For me, a filter (letting some of the Project through to a View) rather than a funnel would make more sense between the Project Map and View Map.

Or a camera. Or an eye. Better to reinforce the 'View' analogy I guess.

Haha...ArchiCAD grinder edition...makes me want to watch Evil Dead again. I'll post the next version when I'm done. The figure is basically for students that need to understand the whole concept in....5 minutes...

Hi Mats
I think what your trying to do should be an inspiration to anyone who writes
technical manuals.
Fun visualizations grab the visual artist more than the dry,(very dry) G.S.
type of explanations. (The G.S. videos really do put me to sleep!) No joke!

Your diagram reminds me of a series of technical manuals my dad had available for his flying students for teaching new private pilots how to grasp navigational concepts back in the 60's.
Yes they were a bit silly, (like one in particular of a pilot not paying attention to his instruments and flying a cartoonish plane almost into a mountian) but fun and easy to relate to in early phases of something new especially.

I actually like your funnel concept, it just needs multiple outlets, with small valves in each outlet to control what goes to different areas?
A fun multi funnel?:-))
Sorry I didn't have time to install the virtual electronic valves.

That actually that looks like that thing my clients occasionally put me through.

Actually here in Portugal our clients use the "turbo model".
