Description:


    In The Dangers of Glitziness and other Visualization Faux Pas, or “What’s wrong with this visualization?,” we take a light-hearted look at various pitfalls of scientific visualization. From overused “glitziness” to unintelligible narration, from data enhancement to erroneous interpolation: VIS-O-MATIC does it all automagically.
