Excited that our group will be presenting two talks at the ICA #EuroCarto2026 in Brno: Paula Mennerich will talk about new approaches to mapping election results & I’ll share insights on communication of uncertainty in journalistic maps. See you in Brno! eurocarto2026.org viulab.haw-hamburg.de

Wahlkarten zeigen i.d.R. nur Gewinner-Parteien, auch für die Zweitstimmen-Ergebnisse. Mit Grid-Cartograms können wir auch die Stimmenanteile der Parteien je Wahlkreis anzeigen, hier für die Landtagswahl BaWü am 8.3.26: viulab-hh.github.io/e2maps-bawue/ 🚀 Feedback willkommen.

#VISRocks @ieeevis.bsky.social Great evening at #westcoastsocial @aappi.bsky.social truly rocked on base and @geovisual.bsky.social on vocals.

Met @geovisual.bsky.social‘s data journalism class at HAW Hamburg yesterday. Amazing projects coming soon via fink.hamburg!

our workshop "uncertainty visualization in data journalism" at univ. of applied sciences hamburg brought together data journalists to reflect on how uncertainty is handled in journalistic work and how it can be communicated more effectively. 🚀 thanks to all who contributed their time and insights!

i took musk’s call not to donate to wikipedia as an opportunity to donate for wikipedia again. how about you? donate.wikimedia.org

thrilled to have you join forces with us for this exciting course on data visualization and storytelling! 🚀🚀🚀

🗞️Small life update: I'm feeling honored to serve as a guest lecturer at the University of Applied Sciences Hamburg. I'm teaching data journalism and data visualization together with @geovisual.bsky.social in our course Playful Data Stories. 🪄🧪

what a great collection of us election maps from various international news sites - thanks for sharing, lisa!

Lisa Charlotte Muth@lisacmuth.bsky.social · 2y ago

Curious how different news sites visualize U.S. election results? Here are 25+ links — let me know in the comments which ones I missed! U.S. news sites =============== → The New York Times: www.nytimes.com/interactive/... → The Washington Post: www.washingtonpost.com/elections/re...

🎉 new paper 🎉 at “computer graphics & visual computing (cgvc)” conference, delving into how data analysts in epidemiology handle data uncertainty and how we, as visualization designers, can better support them. preprint and supplemental material here: osf.io/preprints/os... (1/x)

Still obsessed with this German stats textbook explaining that linear regression is like fitting a large sheet of paper through a swarm of bees.

looking forward to tom's talk tonight at our first creative #datavis #meetup hamburg! 🙌

Nach dem Totalversagen in Sachen #WissZeitVG versucht das BMBF jetzt auch noch die Wissenschaftsfreiheit abzuräumen. Wie viel Schaden wollt Ihr dem Wissenschaftsstandort D eigentlich noch zufügen? 🤯 Und all das in Zeiten, in denen wissenschaftsfeindliche Kräfte weiter an Boden gewinnen. Unglaublich.

Piet Hansen@piethansen.eurosky.social · 2y ago

Das BMBF hat geprüft, ob es Hochschulangestellten der FU Berlin, die politische Erklärungen unterschrieben haben, deshalb Fördermittel entziehen kann. Der Mailwechsel dazu ist dokumentiert. Falls noch jemand Illusionen darüber hatte, was das Ministerium unter Wissenschaftsfreiheit versteht.

*the tension rises* 🥁

this is probably the most impressive data story i have ever seen. a masterpiece for a very sad occasion. the brushstrokes as a leitmotif for long covid related symptoms are simply brilliant.
