Welcome to bdcampbell.net

I continue to work as a Research Scientist who attempts to improve various virtual communities through quality visualization and computer-mediated communications as I finish my PhD at the University of Washington. I teach at the Rhode Island School of Design and am technical director of The Ocean Project.

I attended the Vis, InfoVis, and VAST conferences in Atlantic City, NJ, to catch up on all the lastest research while reconnecting with my colleagues after missing last year's festivities. Great to see so many alumni from Brown, but no one from the University of Washington.
