From February 16 to 21, the seminar Visualizing Data on Non-Flat, Non-Rectangular Displays took place at Schloss Dagstuhl. This interdisciplinary seminar was organized by Raimund Dachselt together with Anastasia Bezerianos (Université Paris-Saclay, INRIA, CNRS, FR) and Wesley J. Willett (University of Calgary, CA). Among the 23 participants was also our group member Ricardo Langner and our former colleague Konstantin Klamka, who both received an invitation to the seminar.
As a unique characteristic of Dagstuhl, the one-week long seminar took place in a remote location and enabled intensive discussions on the state-of-the-art and the future of data visualizations beyond the conventional flat and rectangular displays of today. The participants explored various facets of this topic in multiple group discussions and short presentations. The results of the seminar will be published soon in a Dagstuhl report. A short summary, motivation, and list of participants can be found at https://www.dagstuhl.de/25082.
