[Ben Watson]

*CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: *



*The 3rd Visualization for Communication Workshop (VisComm 2020
<http://viscomm.io/>)An IEEE Visualization
<http://ieeevis.org/> WorkshopOctober 25 or 26, online*
*VisComm moves online*
Due to the COVID pandemic, VisComm and IEEE Vis are moving online. While we
will certainly miss seeing you all in person, we hope that this will make
it easier for you to submit and attend!

*Theme*
While visualization research is still largely focused on data analysis,
most people experience visualization in the media, where it may describe
political topics, budgets, and sports. An independent community of
visualization practitioners has sprung up, producing and deconstructing
visualizations of broad interest. Free visualization tools are widely
available and used.

The VisComm workshop brings together practitioners and researchers from a
broad range of disciplines to address questions raised by visualization’s
new communicative role. We encourage participation from journalists,
designers and others that do not typically attend the IEEE Visualization
<http://ieeevis.org/> conference.

*Participation*
We invite contributions from any discipline, but particularly encourage
those using visualization to communicate, such as journalists and
designers. Scientific contributions addressing such use are welcome as well.

VisComm seeks short research papers, short position papers, and posters. In
addition, Viscomm accepts visual case studies, which allow visualization
practitioners to present their visualizations, and discuss how they were
designed and received by their audience. Practitioners may submit case
studies as web sites or videos.

*Submissions*
Papers should be no more than 6 pages long excluding references, with the
length matching its content. Posters should be in the form of extended
abstracts, 1-2 pages in length. For publication information and further
submission detail, see the workshop website <http://viscomm.io/>.

the VGTC society, the VIS 2020 conference, and the VisComm track.
