This work is so cool

Such a disappointing start to #ieeevis 2025 for us remote attendees. No live streaming so best we get is a vicarious experience of a discord channel discussing details we cannot see. This is a major step backward in an era where travel options are constrained both environmentally and politically.

As someone who has worked hard to bring economic benefit to the state of Utah as it preserves one of the most complete fossil bearing rock sequences especially in the world through bringing conference to Utah and developing tourism & educational opportunities; this is really depressing news!

SCI faculty, staff, & students are heading to the #ieeevis conference in Vienna this weekend, & they’re bringing scarily good research 👻. They'll be celebrating 3 awards—best paper, honorable mention, & Test of Time—and contributing in lots of other ways: sci.utah.edu/vis-2025/ @ieeevis.bsky.social

Charts and diagrams use visual structure to convey meaning. For example, spacing and alignment groups data, spatial proximity links labels to elements. But this visual structure is typically invisible to screen readers. Introducing Benthic, new research at #ASSETS2025 vis.mit.edu/pubs/benthic/

University of Utah/SCI is hiring in (data) vis this year! It's an open rank position! Come do cool vis work in the land of mountains and canyons utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/188... #ieeevis

Reposting — looks like organisers uploaded a new video with better audio and different timings. Authoring Tools for Transparent Climate Reporting, presented at @propl.dev 2025: youtu.be/IIRJeleXeuU?... @iccscambridge.bsky.social

Revisit by @laneh.bsky.social and team is an excellent option. It requires some configuration and setup, but it works beautifully and all your data stays on your server. (revisit.dev)

osf ui refresh makes browsing faster and less annoying! hell yea

The accepted papers list for alt.vis is now out! IMO it's one of the best (if not the best) year of alt.vis yet. We got it all: games, religion, alchemy, critiques, and more!! ugh! such an exciting set of papers altvis.github.io

this looks sick

I’m looking for an easy-to-use survey platform to replace Qualtrics. The prices have recently skyrocketed, and it seems we can no longer justify the cost.

Unreasonably excited to present THEORY IS SHAPES at alt.vis this November! Read on to find out what the "BLT Sandwich Theory of Visualization Consumption" (and other shape-based shenanigans) can teach us about theorycrafting in research 🥪🧲🧊♾️

They massacred my boy

Funny to see one of my favorite of this years alt vis papers summarized by (what appears to be) a slop machine

I'm at #uist2025 presenting our new work with @jonathoda.bsky.social! 𝗗𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗸 is a computational substrate for end-user programming that makes it easy to implement programming experiences like programming by demonstration, collaborative editing and more! tomasp.net/academic/pap...

A beautiful text on Steve Roden and the nature of archive.

A few days ago, amidst everything else, I pressed send on the book I've been working on (and off) for over a decade. It's still a long way from finished, but the final phase has begun. Watch for DATA BY DESIGN: FROM THE HISTORY OF VISUALIZATION TO THE FUTURE WE NEED in print and online in Fall 2026!

Are you working on a #CHI2026 paper w/tricky anonymization? Per the official policy (chi2026.acm.org/chi-anonymiz...), "Note that the use of any references marked “anonymous” is grounds for desk rejection." I would've had 3 papers desk rejected on these grounds. 😵 Watch out, folks. 👀 RT, please!

Sort of puzzling that this international conference moves to the US for the first time this year. Are we pretending nothing's happening?

alt.vis reviewing has begun! This year we have our highest amount of submissions! By quite a bit! And lots of them are really cool!! If you're curious, come on down to alt.vis and write a review! reviewing is self-selected & opt-in (chaos/open reviewing)

Sunk-cost fallacy and cheating students are the only things keeping AI in business at this point. Just look at how usage of ChatGPT plummets as soon as the semester ends.

Wow we’re having “games are art” discourse again! Just gonna leave this here. From my dissertation:

The Mask of Sorrow is a monument located on a hill above Magadan, Russia, commemorating the many prisoners who suffered and died in the Gulag prison camps in the Kolyma region of the Soviet Union during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s.

for a bit Id been wanting to be able to quickly jump into a nb and hack (ala docs.new for docs), and had been blocked by how slow setting up a python env felt Recently I realized I can have a "scratch-nbs" folder with all my shit set up and its been eye opening; so many dumb ideas explored quickly

the special issue is out! please read it and join the discussion — what do YOU think is critical his? have we missed a perspective? how can we grow, learn, and build together? it’s an excellent set of submissions in two parts

last semester i ran a class entirely outside of canvas. I used google sheets for grades, forms for stuff submission, mail-merge based emails for grade reports, and a markdown page for scheduling/syllabi. It took some effort, but it wasn't actively terrible the way all interactions with canvas are

Our two part CG&A issue on critical visualization has been published!! Critical vis considers the context of data and visualization; asking Qs about the way we use and understand data+vis (who is it for? who benefits?). A stellar group of article ime www.computer.org/csdl/magazin...
