Recording this video was tough, but the conversation is so important. I share my candid experiences and insights on thriving as a woman in academia.
Hoping it fosters more discussion and community. https://youtu.be/jzgJrXsL4SU

This paper definitely wins the superlative for "VIS paper with the most emojis" this year 😉 Check out @Birdbassador & co-authors' "Data-Wink" ratio paper from today's workshop on Data Storytelling in an Era of Generative AI (Gen4DS) https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2408.13418 #IEEEVIS #VIS2024 #GenAI #Emojis

Communicating data insights in an accessible and engaging manner to a broader audience remains a significant challenge. To address this problem, we introduce the Emoji Encoder, a tool that generates a set of emoji recommendations for the field and category names appearing in a tabular dataset. The selected set of emoji encodings can be used to generate configurable unit charts that combine plain text and emojis as word-scale graphics. These charts can serve to contrast values across multiple quantitative fields for each row in the data or to communicate trends over time. Any resulting chart is simply a block of text characters, meaning that it can be directly copied into a text message or posted on a communication platform such as Slack or Teams. This work represents a step toward our larger goal of developing novel, fun, and succinct data storytelling experiences that engage those who do not identify as data analysts. Emoji-based unit charts can offer contextual cues related to the data at the center of a conversation on platforms where emoji-rich communication is typical.
