Emosaic is grounded in psychological research on the relationship between language, affect, and color perception. We capitalize on an established three-dimensional model of human emotion: valence (good, nice vs. bad, awful), arousal (calm, passive vs. exciting, active) and dominance (weak, controlled vs. strong, in control). Previously, multi-dimensional models of emotion have been used rarely in visualizations of textual data, due to the perceptual challenges involved. Furthermore, until recently most text visualizations remained at a high level, precluding closer engagement with the deep semantic content of the text. Informed by empirical studies, we introduce a color mapping that translates any point in three-dimensional affective space into a unique color. Emosaic uses affective dictionaries of words annotated with the three emotional parameters of the valence-arousal-dominance model to extract emotional meanings from texts and then assigns to them corresponding color parameters of the hue-saturation-brightness color space. This approach of mapping emotion to color is aimed at helping readers to more easily grasp the emotional tone of the text. Several features of Emosaic allow readers to interactively explore the affective content of the text in more detail; e.g., in aggregated form as histograms, in sequential form following the order of text, and in detail embedded into the text display itself. Interaction techniques have been included to allow for filtering and navigating of text and visualizations.}, subject = {Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GoodwinMeierBartrametal., author = {Goodwin, Sarah and Meier, Sebastian and Bartram, Lyn and Godwin, Alex and Nagel, Till and D{\"o}rk, Marian}, title = {Unravelling the Human Perspective and Considerations for Urban Data Visualization}, series = {2021 IEEE 14th Pacific Visualization Symposium (PacificVis)}, booktitle = {2021 IEEE 14th Pacific Visualization Symposium (PacificVis)}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York}, organization = {The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)}, isbn = {978-1-6654-3931-2}, doi = {10.1109/PacificVis52677.2021.00024}, pages = {126 -- 130}, abstract = {Effective use of data is an essential asset to modern cities.

There has been considerable research on collaborative sensemaking with visualizations and the personal relation of people with data. Yet, little is known about how public audiences without specific expertise and shared incentives openly express their thoughts, feelings, and insights in response to data visualizations. Motivated by the extensive social exchange around visualizations in online communities, this research examines characteristics and motivations of people's reactions to posts featuring visualizations. Following a Grounded Theory approach, we study 475 reactions from the /r/dataisbeautiful community, identify ten distinguishable reaction types, and consider their contribution to the discourse. A follow-up survey with 168 Reddit users clarified their intentions to react. Our results help understand the role of personal perspectives on data and inform future interfaces that integrate audience reactions into visualizations to foster a public discourse about data.}, subject = {Visualisierung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Krohn, author = {Krohn, Matthias}, title = {Design mit digitalen Medien : das Projekt "Human Touch"}, series = {Images of a conference}, booktitle = {Images of a conference}, address = {Potsdam}, organization = {Fachhochschule Potsdam}, isbn = {3-928710-27-3}, pages = {204 -- 209}, abstract = {Designkonferenz Potsdam 23./24.Juni 1995}, subject = {Design}, language = {de} } @article{Meier, author = {Meier, Sebastian}, title = {The Marker Cluster}, series = {International Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Information Systems}, volume = {7}, journal = {International Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Information Systems}, number = {1}, publisher = {IGI Global}, address = {Hershey}, issn = {1947-3206}, doi = {10.4018/IJAEIS.2016010102}, pages = {28 -- 43}, abstract = {The growing amount of gathered, stored and available data is creating a need for useful mass-data visualizations in many domains.
