An early invited presentation of LIVE Environments. The focus was on the origins of LIVE Astro, and on how it can be used to connect "data, language, and pictures," in line with the mission layed out by Goodman et al. in "The Paper of the Future" in 2015.  Delivered in the context of a AAS-hosted discussion of strategy for astronomical data archives' strategy, worldwide.

 A discussion of how the glue software can be used across a spectrum of applications, from simple, scripted web-based interactions, to dashboards, to fully flexible environments. Presented at the 2023 Gordon Research Conference on Data Visualization in Research and Education.

A slide deck to guide a conversation about Alyssa Goodman's astronomical, data visualization, prediction, and science education reserch and teaching endeavors.

Through an online ViZTIG seminar (Alan Turing Institute), Alyssa Goodman with collaborator Jonathan Foster explains the origins of glue, paying homage to its ancestors DataDesk and Igor, and to cousins like Tableau. Specifically, they show how the high-dimensional nature of data in astronomy, genomics, medicine, and other areas essentially requires a glue-like approach to make the most of the information at-hand.

A demonstration of how the glue exploratory data analysis software has helped with recent discoveries about the structure of the local Milky Way. For more information on the science content featured, please see AG's Munich Physics colloquium from June 2023.

Thanks in large part to Gaia observations of the Milky Way and rapid advances in data science, it has very recently become possible to map out: 1) the three-dimensional internal structure and galactic arrangement of star-forming regions and 2) the positions and motions of young stars forming in those regions—also in 3D. These advances are painting a NEW picture of NEW (freshly-formed!) parts of the Milky Way.  The 3D, moving,  picture we can re-create from the data is giving hints as to the origins of oscillations in the Galaxy's arms (e.g. The Radcliffe Wave) as well as to the role of feedback (e.g. in the Local Bubble) from supernovae in driving the formation of dense gas, and ultimately stars. The talk will focus primarily on science, while also including demonstrations of how data science and visualization tools, including glue, WorldWide Telescope and OpenSpace, have enabled these discoveries.
