[Aspuru-Guzik group list] [iic-seminars] IIC Seminar Reminder - Many Eyes: Democratizing Visualization

by Helene Tingle

Initiative in Innovative Computing @ Harvard Seminar Series Wednesday, December 5, 2007; 4:00pm 60 Oxford Street, Room 330 Martin Wattenberg, Research Staff Member, IBM Fernanda Viegas, Research Staff Member, IBM Seminar Title: Many Eyes: Democratizing Visualization Abstract: Data visualization has historically been accessible only to the elite in academia, business, and government. To democratize visualization, we have built Many Eyes, a web site where people upload their data, create interactive visualizations, and carry on conversations. The goal is a social style of data analysis in which visualizations spur discussion and collaboration. We present Many Eyes, describe patterns of usage on the site, and discuss what those patterns suggest about the future of visualization. Upcoming IIC seminars Continue to stay up to date with our IIC Seminar Schedule. Parking is available in the 52 Oxford Street Garage. Please tell the attendant that you are attending the IIC Seminar. _______________________________________________ iic-seminars mailing list iic-seminars(a)calists.harvard.edu http://calists.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/iic-seminars

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] [iic-seminars] Digital Humanities Seminar Series - announcing kick off sessions

by Helene Tingle

Digital Humanities Talk Series, 2007-2008 Over the coming six months, eight invited guest speakers from outside Harvard will present work they are conducting in the digital humanities. The first two speakers will be presenting on Monday, December 3 and Tuesday, December 4th. Speaker: David Rumsey; President of Cartography Associates, Chairman of Luna Imaging, Inc. When: Monday, December 3, 2007; 4:00pm Where: Barker Center for the Humanities, Thompson Room Talk Title: Giving Maps a Second Life with Digital Technologies Abstract: David Rumsey will show how his increasing use of digital technologies and the Internet over the past decade has transformed his work as a historical map scholar and collector. Using imaging software, GIS, and popular applications like Google Earth and Second Life, Rumsey has given new life to old maps, both in their dissemination and our ability to analyze and understand them, thereby unlocking the information held in maps for use in a wide range of disciplines. He will discuss and demonstrate how he offers these software tools and a growing number of digitized maps themselves on his free public online map library at www.davidrumsey.com --------------------- Speaker: Jason Stoddard, Founder and Managing Partner/Interactive for Centric.com When: Tuesday, December 4, 2007; 9:00am Where: CGIS S250 Talk Title: Virtual Worlds: A New Enabler for Digital Humanities Abstract: In virtual worlds like Second Life, educators and individuals are building replicas of monuments such as the San Francesco Assisi, teaching high-level Chinese to high-school students using gaming and roleplaying techniques, performing dozens of concerts and stageplays every week, creating unique experiences that bring art such as Van Gogh's Starry Night to life, building literature-based worlds such as Dante's Inferno, and creating their own alternate realities such as Caledon and the Wastelands. Jason Stoddard explores some of the most engaging of these virtual places, and discusses how virtual worlds enable digital humanities with immersive experiences, and outlines some of the virtual world platforms available, including emerging open-source models.
