Dear Colleagues, For the first time the TransImage conference (https://transimage2018.net <https://transimage2018.net/>) is featuring a special track on data visualization. TransImage aims in bringing together artists, theorists, scholars, scientists, historians and curators. Papers are invited from areas related to: Media Arts, Painting, Drawing, Curating, Installation, Film, Video, Photography, Data Visualization, Real-time Imaging, Design, Intelligent Systems and Image Science. The Data Visualization track focuses on questions such as: Where are the new frontiers for visualization? How can visualization become a cultural artifact and general skill? How to support people creating, accessing, learning, and understanding visualizations? How do data visualizations become interface to the data? The work must be original and not published elsewhere before. Accepted papers will be put online and get a DOI. High-rated submissions will get an invitation for an extended journal version. Send us your most creative and provocative research. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Visualization beyond the desktop (e.g., design in augmented reality, physical visualizations) - Visualization Art and Design - Non-digital visualization (e.g. hand-drawings, sketching) - Storytelling, engagement, and education - Visualization design process, reflections, re-design, critique - Design frameworks, design spaces - Visualization techniques - Perception and evaluation - Success stories and case studies TransImage is held on April 18-20 2018 in Edinburgh, UK. Deadline for abstracts is October 20. Deadline for invitations to full submissions is mid January. For information contact: Benjamin Bach at bbach@inf.ed.ac.uk <mailto:bbach@inf.ed.ac.uk>.
