Call
for participation on 3nd High-End Visualization Workshop
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
With the increasing establishment of computational sciences as new emerging field filling the gap between experimental and theoretical physics, the importance of scientific visualization for interpretation and study of numerical data is without question. But even beyond use in a purely scientific context, the potential and demand for purposes of public outreach is high. We intend to discuss the issues as to why scientists might be interested on visualizations that do not directly advance their own science, but serve to bring their field out of the ivory tower to the general public. Is this overhead worth the effort or shall a scientist rather stay on his own very focus? What are the demands from journalists and educationalists? What about the science in visualization itself? Would the public even appreciate scientifically correct visualizations or rather accept anything which looks "cool"? What resources can we find to transform and enhance scientific content into a pedagogically appropriate presentation? We intend to discuss these provocative questions in an informal, inspiring atmosphere. This workshop is inter-disciplinary by nature, and as every year we also encourage contributions that are outside the focus topic. For all participants - Please sign in at |

Afternoons are free for discussions and/or skiing on the surrounding summits. If there is enough interest, we might want to reserve some time to do real coding based on the mentioned software package. This includes efforts to exchange data among the various applications (file format exporters, importers), or getting experience with some application. For this, we would ask every participant to prepare his laptop with a working prototype of his/her primary software package. |
