Abstract:
Scientific visualization represents information as
images that let us explore, discover, analyze, and
validate large collections of data. Much research in this
area is dedicated to designing effective visualizations
that support specific analysis needs. Recently, though,
we’ve considered visualizations from another angle.
We’ve started asking, Are visualizations beautiful? Can
we consider visualizations works of art?
