<p>Oh dashboards&#8230; dashboards&#8230; what are they? For some, they are just ugly examples of bad visualization design (speed dials anyone?). For others, they are a first citizen of the data visualization world that deserve to be learned, studied, and understood.</p>
<p>To dig into this debate, we have <a href="https://www.sfu.ca/~lyn/">Lyn Bartram</a>&nbsp;of Simon Fraser University and <a href="https://alper.datav.is/">Alper Sarikaya</a>&nbsp;of Microsoft Power BI on the show to talk about an exciting research project they developed. Their research seeks to build a better picture of what dashboard are and how they are used &#8220;in the wild.&#8221; The results are summarized in a paper they wrote with their colleagues from Tableau and Honeycomb.io:&nbsp;<a href="https://alper.datav.is/publications/dashboards/">What Do We Talk About When We Talk About Dashboards?</a></p>
<p>On the show we talk about how the project got started, what they discovered by analyzing a large corpus of dashboards, and the many ramifications of their research.</p>
<p>Enjoy the show!</p>

<p>Sherlock Holmes was a man who seldom took exercise for exercise's sake. Few men were capable of greater muscular effort, and he was undoubtedly one of the finest boxers of his weight that I have ever seen; but he looked upon aimless bodily exertion as a waste of energy, and he seldom bestirred himself save when there was some professional object to be served. Then he was absolutely untiring and indefatigable. That he should have kept himself in training under such circumstances is remarkable, but his diet was usually of the sparest, and his habits were simple to the verge of austerity. Save for the occasional use of cocaine, he had no vices, and he only turned to the drug as a protest against the monotony of existence when cases were scanty and the papers uninteresting.</p>
<p>One day in early spring he had so far relaxed as to go for a walk with me in the Park, where the first faint shoots of green were breaking out upon the elms, and the sticky spear-heads of the chestnuts were just beginning to burst into their five-fold leaves. For two hours we rambled about together, in silence for the most part, as befits two men who know each other intimately. It was nearly five before we were back in Baker Street once more.</p>
<p>“Beg pardon, sir,” said our page-boy, as he opened the door. “There's been a gentleman here asking for you, sir.”</p>
<p>Holmes glanced reproachfully at me. “So much for afternoon walks!” said he. “Has this gentleman gone, then?”</p>]]</psb:bookmark>

<p>What is uncertainty? Why is it important to take it into account when designing data visualizations? And how do you actually do so? We explore these and other questions with <a href="https://users.eecs.northwestern.edu/~jhullman/">Jessica Hullman</a> of Northwestern University and <a href="http://www.mjskay.com/">Matthew Kay</a> of the University of Michigan. Jessica and Matt have written many publications on the topic that help orient us to the intricate world of uncertainty, probabilities, and their relevance to data visualization.</p>
<p>We hope you enjoy the show!</p>

<p>Here we go! Another year has passed and lots has happened in the data visualization world. This time we decided to scramble things up again with a new annual review format: five podcasters (including ourselves!) reflecting back on year 2018. We&#8217;re lucky to be joined by Jon Schwabish from <a href="https://policyviz.com/podcast/the-policyviz-podcast/">PolicyViz</a>, Alli Torban from <a href="https://dataviztoday.com/">DataViz Today</a>, and Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic from <a href="http://www.storytellingwithdata.com/podcast/">Storytelling with Data</a>.</p>
<p>This was a long chat! But we had a lot to cover: major trends, favorite projects, new tools, and standout people, companies, studios, conferences, books, and blogs. There is a lot to learn there. Don&#8217;t miss our long list of links below! <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/11.2.0/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<p>As always, thanks for following along with us this year. And special thanks go to our supporters and to Destry and Florian for their amazing work behind the scenes.</p>
<p>We wish you all Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!</p>
