    The Future of Interactive Data Analysis and Visualization
    (The Eurographics Association, 2023) Bernard, Jürgen; El-Assady, Mennatallah; Hotz, Ingrid; Schulz, H.-J.
    The interactive data analysis and visualization (VIS) community has prospered for over thirty years. Generation after generation, the community has evolved its understanding of research problems and, along the way, contributed various techniques, applications, and research methods. While some of the developed techniques have stood the test of time, we will consider what else needs to be remembered or even revitalized from the good old days in this panel. Further, VIS is currently facing exciting times, with great changes and trends within and outside the community. Thus, in this panel, we want to analyze current research trends and discuss our most exciting ideas and directions. Looking ahead, it can already be anticipated that the future of VIS is subject to change. In this panel, we want to map out future research directions for our community. Along these three lines, the guiding theme of our interactive panel will be three types of (provoking) statements: (i) In the good old days, I liked when we did . . . (ii) Currently, a most exciting trend is ... and (iii) In the future, we will be doing . . . Come and join us to reflect on past and present trends, daring a look ahead to an exciting future for the interactive data analysis and visualization community!

    Integrating Sonification and Visualization - But Why?
    (The Eurographics Association, 2024) Rind, Alexander; Enge, Kajetan; Iber, Michael; Rönnberg, Niklas; Lenzi, Sara; Elmquist, Elias; Caiola, Valentina; Lan, Fangfei; Höldrich, Robert; Aigner, Wolfgang; Schulz, Hans-Jörg; Isenberg, Tobias
    The research communities studying visualization and sonification share exceptionally similar goals, essentially aiming to make data interpretable to humans. One community uses visual representations, while the other employs auditory (nonspeech) representations of data. Although the two communities have much in common, they developed mostly in parallel, with only comparatively few examples of integrated audiovisual data analysis idioms presented so far. This panel brings together researchers from both the fields of visualization and sonification to collectively discuss the question: 'Integrating Sonification and Visualization - but why?' In the panel discussion, we will tackle this question along two main hypotheses: Combining the modalities to (1) increase the ''bandwidth from data to brain,'' or (2) to increase a user's personal engagement during the data analysis process. On the one hand, designers might aim to communicate more data in less time or gain more and more complex insights from the data by using a multi-modal display. This argument follows an understanding that two senses should be capable of processing more information than ''just'' one. On the other hand, sometimes, a more engaged analysis of the represented data is desirable. Engagement with data visualization stands as a crucial topic in numerous contexts within our field, encouraging ''deeper'' thinking by expert analysts, readers of data journalism articles, and students in educational settings. We hypothesize that integrating visualization with sonification holds the potential to enhance user engagement during analysis. Through the panel discussion, we want to delve into the spectrum between aiming for bandwidth and engagement, seeking to understand the opportunities and challenges of integrating sonification and visualization.
