Dear SIGCISers, On behalf of the organizers, I am forwarding the announcement (and a program with abstracts, attached as a pdf file) of a workshop entitled "Writing the History of Computer Visualizations in the Sciences: Production, Uses, Circulation (1940-1990)" that will be held in Paris (and online) next May. _______________ /*apologies for cross-posting*/ Dear colleagues, We're very excited to announce an upcoming two-day event, "Writing the History of Computer Visualizations in the Sciences: Production, Uses, Circulation (1940-1990)", taking place *on May 2nd and 3rd 2024 at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in Paris *(54 boulevard Raspail, 75006 PARIS). The event aims to bring together historians of science in order to explore the extent to which the use of computer display technologies for producing, reading, interacting and sharing visualizations has affected the production of scientific knowledge. A keynote presentation by Janina Wellmann (MPIWG) will be held on Thursday, May 2. This event is organized by the team of the ANR project DESIGNSHS (Design Graphique, Recherche et Patrimoine des Sciences Sociales. Le laboratoire de Graphique de Jacques Bertin - ANR-20-CE27-0023), supervised by Charlotte Bigg (CNRS, EHESS, Centre Alexandre Koyré). *We invite you to join us either in person or online*. *For the latter option, please send an email to edgarlejeune@hotmail.fr and to edgar.lejeune@ehess.fr* Below you can find the schedule for the event. Please feel free to ask for the complete program!
