Into visualization? This may work for you...it's the call for papers for VR'04: Visual and Spatial Reasoning in Design, which will be held at MIT in Cambridge, MA, next July 22-24, 2004:

The design process has become the focus of an increasingly intense research effort. Of central importance in designing is the interplay between two types of knowledge - abstract, conceptual knowledge and perceptually based knowledge. Visual and spatial reasoning are the cognitive and/or computational processes that link these two types of knowledge and it is this aspect of the design process that forms the focus of the conference.

The conference aims to bring together researchers from both within and without design who work on visual and spatial reasoning and researchers from both cognitive and computational viewpoints. The overall objective is to develop this new interdisciplinary field and provide a unified research agenda for this socially and economically significant area.

Based on the last conference's accepted papers, this is fairly academic. Submissions due January 23, 2004.
