Brushing is a fundamental interaction for visual analytics. A brush is usually defined as a closed region of the screen used to select data items and to highlight them in the current view and other linked views. Scatterplots are also standard ways to visualize values for two variables of a set of multidimensional data. We propose a technique to brush and interactively cluster multidimensional data navigating through a single of their scatterplot projection.
