For the first time, I participated in the ACM CHI conference and also presented my first CHI paper.

The When David meets Goliath paper was the result of a cooperation of me and Raimund Dachselt from the Interactive Media Lab with Karthik Badam and Niklas Elmqvist from the University of Maryland. At CHI, Karthik and I gave a shared presentation in the Visualizations Beyond the Desktop session on Tuesday. The highlight was, of course, receiving the Honorable Mention Award for this paper! Further, we also presented a demonstration of our paper on Monday evening.

On Saturday, I also participated in the Data Visualization on Mobile Devices workshop and shared my thoughts on hierarchical graphs. All in all, CHI was a great experience and I’m especially happy to have seen so many known faces again and also to have met a lot of new people.
