Dear Colleague,

We would like to invite you and your students to showcase research in 
visualisation by video or by poster at our cross-domain networking 
event, vizNET 2008. We also invite you to contribute your expertise and 
insight to day three of vizNET 2008 (9 May) in which we explore and 
identify a series of Grand Challenges as perceived by the UK 
Visualization Community:

vizNET 2008: Call for video
http://www.viznet.ac.uk/viznet2008/callforvideo
vizNET 2008 encourages attendees to submit a short video clip for 
inclusion in one of the early presentation sessions. We are very keen 
for attendees to have the opportunity to fully participate during the 
event. Whilst some people may prefer to show off some of their work we 
also recognise that some attendees may be more interested in 
highlighting a problem they are trying to solve and which they would 
like to share with others. For instance you may have a particularly 
challenging data set with no immediately obvious means of teasing out 
important features of the underlying data set properties. By bringing 
examples of such challenges to vizNET 2008 it is highly likely that 
other people attending the vizNET event will be able to suggest 
possible ways of solving the problems. A short video can illustrate the 
sort of visualization work people are engaged with and help explain the 
key points much better than a static poster. vizNET 2008 is very much 
concerned with broadening out and increasing opportunities for 
networking.
