Recent Projects:
I have written down some policies of how I run my group.
Jim Whitehead has some excellent advice for
contacting faculty. Although some of his points are specific to UCSC
(the differential cost of foreign and native students, the exact
details of how to apply), most of the rest is very valid.

My research interests include the development, evaluation, and
characterization of information visualization systems and techniques
from both user-driven and technique-driven perspectives.

Prospective Students
Please note that I am not currently planning to take on any new students next year (2010/2011). If you are
interested in becoming a graduate student at UBC, please see our prospective
graduate students page. Applications should go to the CS
department, not to me directly.
Books
I read way too much, mostly science fiction and fantasy novels. I'll
admit to reading a lot of utter trash, but I only recommend the good
ones. I add books to the recommended list chronologically. I also have a perl
script that collates a list by
author, which includes short blurbs about some of the authors.
