Hereby starting my now-traditional enormous #ieeevis thread, for 2022. First live conference since the before times - somewhat surreal to be in Oklahoma City hotel. Crucial info: substantial hot & cold breakfast available today and all other mornings right outside meeting rooms!
Really thoughtful #ieeevis VDA keynote from @jdfaviz on Scalability with Progressive Data Science.
Call to action: don’t ignore or we’ll be irrelevant!
Good defn of progressive: latency controlled, quality monitored, compute time decided by user according to quality.

Surfacing from virtual.ieeevis.org to start this year's thread of tidbits for your visualization delectation.
We're already deep into 2021 #ieeevis, 2 days down and 4 to go. I've seen a cavalcade of great stuff already, and want to catch up on lots more!
First - yay books! All the CRC/Routledge books in the AK Peters Visualization series, which I co-edit along with @AlbertoCairo, are discounted for everybody at #ieeevis
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.

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.
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…
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
