Several different three dimensional models of the Universe can reproduce the two dimensional motions we see in our night sky accurately. It was not until...
A public presentation at the Harvard College Observatory, given in conjunction with the launch of "Massachusetts STEM Week," focusing on how science (especially astronomy) is done today, and may be done in the future, with a look at the past.
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.
Check out Alyssa Goodman's presentation at JupyterCon 2023 in Paris France. Her talk features an extensive tour of the origins and usage of the high-dimensional data visualization and exploration environment known as "glue."

A presentation for students of the REU program at Harvard about the state of partnerships between astronomical, physical, and computational approaches to gleaning insight from combinations of scientific and information visualization in Astrophysics. In particular, I discuss how the “glue” linked-view visualization environment (glueviz.org), developed originally to facilitate high-dimensional data exploration in Astronomy and Medicine, can be extended to many other fields of data-driven inquiry. Other topics include current open-source, plug & play, approach to software facilitates the combination of powerful programs and projects such as glue, WorldWide Telescope, ESASky, and the Zooniverse Citizen Science platform.
