Do dense graphs overwhelm your ability to process what you see? What if instead of analyzing your graph on 2D monitors, you could stand inside your graph in a space as big as the sky? AviarGraph delivers dynamic Neo4j graphs in VR using force-directed graph technology to let you immerse yourself in your data. James R. Mireles I have been in software development for over 25 years, most spent in databases. But in 2014, facing a NASA layoff (layoffs happen in the NASA world; they’re part of the experience), I decided to pivot into VR. I acquired an Oculus DK2 and started learning Unreal and then, later, Unity. Data science in VR is a way to leverage my software development skills in a dynamic and growing field. What else is of interest about me? Hmmm, I have a history degree, which means I would probably be the only presenter on the program with a non-technical degree (something I’m quite proud of). And I have one party trick: I can balance a sharpened pencil on my index finger.
