A user interface, computer program, computer readable media and method arranges displays on a lateral surface of a cylinder, which displays can be easily viewed and selected by rotation about the axis of rotation of the cylinder. A user operates an input element for this purpose. A drive rotates the lateral surface containing the displays according to the user's inputs. In addition to this exemplary embodiment of a mechanical arrangement, a user interface is also proposed which visualizes the displays and the lateral surface only virtually as graphical objects on a graphical user interface. The rotation of the displays is now output as an animation on the graphical user interface. This affords the advantage that a visualization is provided which images a mental model of the user on the graphical user interface and simultaneously increases the user's attention by means of the animation.
