Tomorrow #Eurographics #conference will begin in #Aachen. While I typically focus on #Visualization, I wouldn’t miss #EG right where I live 😅 Looking forward to some good looking renderings and interesting talks. If anybody attends @eurographicsc.bsky.social and needs local help, let me know!

The 2025 @ieeevis.bsky.social conference is about to start! It's my third and last time as organizer of the #SciVis Contest, and I am happy that we have an exciting number of high-quality contestants this year that present how visual tools can be used to discover novel materials in recycling. #VIS

Stripes can be so engaging. For many of my students, the "climate stripes" are the most striking example which helps them understand how #visualization can transport important messages in a glance. I just hope we can limit the number of added colors in the future :/ www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Scientists added a new shade to a graphical representation of global temperature change to keep up with our warming world.

Alright, just had my last presentation at 🌴 IEEE VIS for this year (talked about #DaVE - dave-vis.com ) and while I am very happy for the discussions that are happening in the conference Discord, I cannot wait to meet everyone again in person. Let’s meet in #Vienna! #ieeevis

I have to be honest, I wasn't really active here, but #ieeevis is a good reason to come back and not only post stuff on #LinkedIn (but feel free to connect there as well, if you'd like to: www.linkedin.com/in/dertimger...). This year's VIS is actually quite busy for me (a thread).

🎉Yay! We won a best paper award🏆 We worked on ways to visualize degenerate tensor locations in tensor ensembles. Because BlueSky has such a strong limitation of characters, read all about it over on LinkedIn, if you are interested: tinyurl.com/5n8jzhdy

We are at #ISC24 in Hamburg right now! It has now become almost somewhat of a tradition to have a #NHR4CES sofa talk on #Visualization at the start of the conference. So here we are again! If you happen to be here, feel free to come over today at 16:30 at the #NHR booth!

Gerade in #Aachen mit den tausenden Menschen gegen Rechts zusammenzustehen berührt mich wahnsinnig. Und es macht mir Hoffnung. #NoAFD

Finally, there is, of course, a new challenge for this year! The data for the 2024 contest describes Sonar Imaging for Hydrothermal Systems and I'm already excited to see all the #visualization approaches that come out of it. All details here: sciviscontest2024.github.io (3/3)

By the way, if you also want to use the contest data (Brain network simulations) for your own work, we have made the data permanently available and citable through Zenodo, so feel free to get creative with it: zenodo.org/records/1051... (2/3)

I'm still quite happy how last year's #SciVis Contest at #IEEEVIS turned out. Some of the results have been added to the contest website and I can only urge you to check them out, some amazing work can be found there: sciviscontest2023.github.io/results/ (1/3)

Internet is also #cats and sharing stories about them. I lost one of mine yesterday. Farewell.

Wow, how is it Friday already? Another #ieeevis is coming to an end. Once again I’ll be going home with so many new insights, impressions and - most important to me - new connections and friends. Thanks for that ☺️

Tim Gerrits @dertimgerrits.bsky.social · 25/10/2023

I love that #ieeevis offers panels such as „Establishing and Thriving in an Academic Career“ which is so helpful and shows how much the community is happy to help and support one another. Makes me really happy to be part of it.

There are probably some people currently planning what to attend @ #ieeevis conference next week. My highly secret insights reccomend visiting the #SciVis #Contest session on Monday, 14°°. Honestly, we had such great submissions on brain activity data! See you in #Melbourne :)

Hello #bluesky. I’ll use this account to share the things that I come across in my line of #research in #visualization. At least I think so, let’s see where we end up with this :)

Streamline visualization of particles adverted by random Perlin noise.
