We use visualization as a petri dish to study intelligence augmentation: how can computation help amplify our cognition and creativity, while respecting our agency? We develop languages, systems, and interfaces for creating common and custom interactive visualizations. We design metrics and interfaces for visually analyzing models, and study human-AI interaction. In collaboration with people with visual disabilities, we explore textual and screen reader modalities for representing data. We study how people understand, discuss, and interact with visualizations, to build more general behavioral rules for information, or an information “physics”. 2025-05-05 It’s been a busy spring with a new white paper on agency with GenAI, and two CHI ‘24 papers on customizable accessibility and authoring multimodal data representations. 2024-03-11 Angie was named a 2024 Apple Scholars in AIML!
