Dove into virtual #ieeevis this morning, along with many others. I've found lots to like already about virtual.ieeevis.org, especially the shuffle by serendipity papers browser. I'll likely be tweeting a lot this week, enjoy or mute as you see fit!
Started off #ieeevis with a bang, my own Visualization Analysis and Design tutorial is running first thing, even as I type. Slides and all videos on our own group's YouTube already posted, see cs.ubc.ca/~tmm/talks.htm…
Just posted a handy thing in the #ieeevis tutorial discord that some folks might not know about: the page from the VAD book site with all my further reading suggestions in one spot, complete with links for all the papers! cs.ubc.ca/~tmm/vadbook/f…
Félicitations to Jean-Daniel Fekete on the #ieeevis#vgtc technical achievement award! I always love award talks showcasing career highlights and great collaborators, this one is no exception.
Félicitations to Catherine Plaisant on the #ieeevis#vgtc career award! Another lovely retrospective talk.
So very delighted that the Polaris paper from Chris Stolte, Pat Hanrahan, and Diane Tang -- which led directly to @tableau -- won the #ieeevis#infovis 20 year Test of Time award. Seeing it grow over the weeks and months was a great part of my Stanford years.
In the brave new world of virtual conferences, we've still got a book table at #ieeevis for @CRCPress! It's virtual too. Here's a thread of what's new in the past year, and what's forthcoming, in our visualization books.
Great start to #ieeevis on Sun morning at #belivws: fiery keynote on open science from @Protohedgehog so good and dense that I just sat back to absorb inspiration for new and better ways to fight the good fight.
@Protohedgehog Good point from @amcrisan following up @Protohedgehog 'penguin metaphor' - not fair that junior penguins asked to test the waters for killer whales while senior tenured penguins wait comfortably on the shore #ieeevis#belivws
@Protohedgehog@amcrisan Appreciated @Protohedgehog emphasis on all four pillars of OS: in addition to reproducibility, also access, serials, evaluation. Articulate calling out perpetuators of paywalls including commercial (El$evier) and academic (IEEE is major offender) #ieeevis#belivws
