The annual Sci-Vi conference runs every year during the Viborg Animation Festival in September.
The Sci-Vi Conference focuses on visualization and animation in science dissemination and facilitates knowledge exchange and networking between researchers in different fields and visual storytellers, seeking to explore and unfold visual science dissemination as a field.
The Sci-Vi conference brings together researchers, animators and visual storytellers, curators and producers to discuss, exchange knowledge and learn from state-of-the-art case studies and ongoing research projects.
The conference focuses, among other things, on these topics:
- Can cooperation between researchers and visual storytellers strengthen research dissemination and to what level?
- How can we use narratives when we communicate research?
- What is the relationship between the visual and cognition?
- How do we strengthen the cooperation between scientists and visual storytellers? -incl. examples of partnerships.
- Film language as a global tool for communication #Viborg Animation Festival 2021
