In this talk we will discuss how the Sculpting Vis project\, a collective of computer scientists and artists at the University of Minnesota and the University o f Texas\, are bringing artistic principles into the visualization process to make visualizations more effective in conveying information not only to the scientists behind the work but also to a broader public that needs to understand what it means about the world around us. This talk will be acc ompanied by a visit the TACC ACB Visualization Lab.\nAbout the Speaker\nGr eg Abram\, Ph.D. - Research Scientist\, Scalable Vis Technologies\nGreg Ab ram is a computer scientist with many years of experience in developing an d applying visualization tools to large scientific datasets.  During his 20 years at IBM Research he helped develop the IBM Visualization Data Expl orer\, the first visualization system designed specifically for the large- scale datasets produced in HPC systems.  In his 15 years at TACC he has c ontinued to develop visualization tools as well as apply them to a wide ra nge of scientific endeavor. Greg earned his B.A.\, B.S.\, Mathematics from University of Florida and a M.S.\, Ph.D.\, Computer Science from Universi ty of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.\n\n \;\n\n\n\nGree Abram (utexas.edu )\nMembers: remember to login to see your free ticket option.
