Bio:
SIGGRAPH 2023
I am an associate professor at Texas A&M University and the Harold L. Adams ’61 Interdisciplinary Endowed Professor in Visualization. I currently serve as program director for the MS and MFA in visualization in the new School of Performance, Visualization, and Fine Arts. I am thrilled to be the Labs chair for the 50th SIGGRAPH. I have served as an ACM SIGGRAPH volunteer on conference planning committees and subcommittees for over a decade in roles such as the 2014 Studio Chair, the 2019 Emerging Technologies Chair, and the 2022 Community Engagement Chair. My creative research is at the intersection of computing and the arts with an emphasis on data materialization.

Her work is in permanent collections and cited in the Springer Handbook on Human-Computer Interaction (2023) chapter Data Physicalization (Dragicevic, Jansen, and Vande Moere, 2019), published in journals such as Leonardo (MIT Press), Metalsmith Magazine, and How Design Magazine; and texts such as Cast: Art and Objects. With Susan Reiser, Starrett coined the term data materialization to describe a subgenre of data art which utilizes data to connect concept through form and material.
