Dates: 19–21 October 2018
Location: University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany
Website: Information+
Deadline for submissions: 15 May 2018
Following the success of the inaugural Information+ 2016 in Vancouver, the biennial conference brings together researchers and practitioners in information design and information visualization to discuss common questions and challenges in these rapidly changing fields. Unlike discipline-specific gatherings, Information+ seeks to foster productive exchanges amongst the variety of people involved in the theories, practices and pedagogies of analyzing and communicating information.
Information+ 2018 will include three events: a one-day hands-on workshop (19 Oct.), a two-day conference (20–21 Oct.), and an exhibition of historic information design (20 Oct. – 1 Nov). The events will take place at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam (FH Potsdam), which was the first university to offer a study programme in interface design in Germany. It has since gained international reputation for their design-oriented visualization research.
Information+ 2018 is co-located with IEEE VIS, 21–27 October in Berlin. The conferences are separate events, requiring separate registration. By co-locating events, we encourage cross-disciplinary discourse, especially with regards to exchanges between the science and design ‘camps’ of the visualization community.
