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 👏
Brand new Ph.D. student Anton Wolter from my group at @csaudk.bsky.social presenting his team’s work on multi-agent data visualization and narrative generation at the #VISxGenAI workshop at #ieeevis; a runner-up in the VisAgent min-challenge at the workshop. Congratulations Anton and team!

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.

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!

Introducing design patterns for Agentic Visualization systems 🤖📊
New w/ Vaishali Dhanoa, Anton Wolter, @gabymlp.bsky.social, Hans-Jörg Schulz on patterns for "agentic visualization" - AI agents aiding vis w/o losing human agency:
- Roles (what agents do)

Agentic Visualization: Extracting Agent-based Design Patterns from Visualization Systems
Autonomous agents powered by Large Language Models are transforming AI, creating an imperative for the visualization field to embrace agentic frameworks. However, our field's focus on a human in the s...

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.

I’m positively surprised by how visible South America was at #ieeevis this year. Both the HCC panel and the capstone by @kanarinka.bsky.social showed that our region is more than its problems and has much to offer in research & activism 💚
