Help us figure out the impact of Generative AI in the visualization community! Is the same old, an existential threat to the field, or just another nifty tool in a long line of tools? We need your input whether you’re an academic or practitioner alike. Do you love it? Do you hate it? Let us know!

📊 Everyone is debating the use (or not) of #GenAI, and the #dataviz community is no exception.
My colleagues and I are conducting a survey to understand this moment, and we'd love to hear your thoughts on how this is impacting our field (please share!): survey.au.dk/LinkCollecto...
Amid all the political stress, it's nice to get good research news (>'-')> <('-'<) ^('-')^ #chi2026
I have lived most of my life under the ruling of one party in #Venezuela, which led to many of us fleeing. More Venezuelans have left their country than Syrians or Ukrainians. Please don’t make easy judgments based on your Global North view if you didn’t know much about us until recently.
It was an appropriate and heartbreaking speech at the Nobel Peace prize ceremony today:
“As we sit here in Oslo City Hall, innocent people are locked away in dark cells in Venezuela. They cannot hear the speeches given today – only the screams of prisoners being tortured”

Here we have Johannes Ellemose giving his #ieeevis 2025 talk on “Eye of the Beholder 🧿: Towards Measuring Visualization Complexity”. Is there something intrinsic about a visualization that can be used to characterize its complexity? Johannes connected several studies to investigate this.
Our team presenting their GenAI work at #ieeevis 👏
Here is to hoping that this attention wave brings us closer to regaining democracy in #Venezuela. Please inform yourself about the systematic violation of human rights in our country, vastly documented over the last decade.
Thank you! 🌈
Thank you ^^
Thank you!! Yes, sounds like a plan :D @moritzstefaner.bsky.social
That is such a sweet way to summarize it, thank you!
Thank you so much!

I can happily report that the data physicalization of our wedding was an entertaining success 🌸
Kudos to the people who do this kind of #dataviz professionally, it was a cool but challenging project. Thanks to @moritzstefaner.bsky.social and @nielsohlsen.bsky.social for their moral support!
Join us at #ieeevis to discuss and propose solutions for the challenges of remote and/or multimodal collaborations!
After seeing one too many #ieeevis papers that were clearly resubmits with little or no revision from the previous iteration, we VIS 2025 OPCs just wrote this blog article (ingeniously named if you ask me): ieeevis.org/year/2025/bl...

I spent an afternoon demoing Android XR, Samsung’s Project Morgan headset, and prototype smart glasses.
I felt like Tony Stark with Gemini as my Jarvis.

This is a crazy early bias - Cheers to the adults who supported me back then (in the Global South! 🌎)
