contents With the introduction of the Visualization for Communication workshop (VisComm) at IEEE VIS and in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been renewed interest in studying visualization as a medium of communication. However the characteristics and definition of this line of study tend to vary from paper to paper and person to person. In this work, we examine the 37 papers accepted to VisComm from 2018 through 2022. Using grounded theory we identify nuances in how VisComm defines visualization, common themes in the work in this area, and a noticeable gap in DEI practices.
