A table listing various article titles and their corresponding bit.ly links, sorted by publication date from August 2024 to May 2023. The table has four columns: Title, bit.ly link, Published date, and Updated (empty). Topics include 'Per Second', 'WaterWorld', several articles about plastics, 'Two Years of the Russia-Ukraine War', among others. Most links are either geni.us or Google Docs spreadsheet URLs. Dates range from most recent (01 Aug 2024) to oldest (24 May 2023)

If you are attending #ieeevis, each paper also includes a link to the conference page!

Summary of new resources available on vispubs. 138 paper preprints, 1 video, 33 websites, 17 links to code, and 131 "other". These are across new papers in CHI (89), EuroVis (49), and VIS (131).

🦉 BIG update to vispubs.com!! 🚀

I pushed CHI, EuroVis, and VIS 2025 late last night.

I'm especially excited by the many amazing research artifacts available for VIS this year. I'm always so inspired by the creativity, technical abilities, and academic rigor of our community.

I just arrived in Vienna for #IEEEVIS 2025! I'm super excited for a full week of visualization research conversations! Please reach out if you want to chat! I'm also officially on the faculty job market, so I'm eager to hear about any opportunities ;)

I've noticed a lot of new followers recently — thanks to the Vis Researcher starter pack! If you're interested in visualization research, you might find vispubs.com useful. It's a site I created to make it easier to access visualization publications and related resources.

I made a data visualization academics starter pack! go.bsky.app/wzjzNi

Let me know who I should add. #datavis

Reflections on UpSet This blog post was triggered by UpSet winning the 10-year Test of Time Award at IEEE VIS. In this post, I reflect on how UpSet came about, and what made it successful.

UpSet won the #ieeevis InfoVis 10-year test of time award 🎉. Thanks to @ngehlenborg.bsky.social @henstr.bsky.social Romain Vuillemot, and Hanspeter Pfister for being an awesome team to work with on this. I wrote up my reflections on what made UpSet successful: vdl.sci.utah.edu/blog/2024/10...

One more quick update. I just added fast-forward video links for VIS 24.

Vispubs.com: A Visualization Publications Repository Data visualization researchers publish in various conferences and journals. This paper will focus on a few of the main venues, VIS, EuroVis, and CHI. In addition to the published manuscript, researche...

I had some nice conversations about VisPubs.com this week at my poster (vdl.sci.utah.edu/publications...).

Also, if you haven't already, please vote :)

The URL for this is now www.vispubs.com!

A screenshot of our application for color palette editing. On the left side is a scatter plot with dots that can be dragged and dropped, on the right hand side are a collection of evaluation rules for that palette showing if the palette passed or failed those rules.

I'm excited to announce the release of our tool Color Buddy! It’s a vis color palette designer built on good color science (incl. spaces like LAB/OKLCH) AND it has modern favs like direct manip & AI fiddles. Spicier: it checks your palette (for a11y/design/etc issues) as you go!

Vote for Vispubs.com!

No, vispubs is not running for office, but I want to know what publications you would like to be added to vispubs.

I was going to have a physical ballot at #ieeevis by my poster, but at least now I won't have to count the ballots :)

forms.gle/Zht1fcwtXwoB...

I've also added flags for papers that are accessible based on what authors reported this year for VIS.

I'll have more to announce over the next week!

Also, please shoot me a message if you're "attending" VIS and want to chat about vispubs!

I've added publications for VIS 2024 to VisPubs.com! (just in time for VIS)

The papers include links to preprints, supplemental material, preregistration, and the conference website link.
