<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Dear all,<br /><br /></div>let me pick up on our discussion on the visibility of the Einstein Toolkit within the LIGO/VIRGO Scientific collaboration, our scientific community in general and the public that we had during the workshop last week.</div><div><br /></div><div>In the end of the week we are opening our traveling exhibition <a href="http://serviastro.am.ub.edu/twiki/bin/view/ServiAstro/UniversFosc">"Unraveling the dark universe"</a> and, as probably many of you these days, we will have a number of outreach talks about gravitational waves. In this context I was looking for animations produced with the toolkit, in addition to the BBH material that I already had from the SXS collaboration, to give more credit to it.</div><div><br /></div><div>I noticed a few things that we could improve</div><div>- update the gallery on the website. At the moment the only animation of an event is that by Barry for GW150914. It would be nice to have more of a collection for the other events, and in particular for GW170817. As first step we could collect links to the youtube channels of different groups.</div><div>- that brings me to a second suggestion: should we bundle those animations, e.g., in a ET youtube channel? At the moment, a quick search leads to filmed talks and lectures (which is important, too, of course), but try the same for SXS and you'll get a list of animations by the collaboration. A first step to give more visibility to the toolkit could be to add the logo to the credits.<br /></div><div><div><div><br /></div><div> This is essentially to spark some discussion, and if there is interest, we can follow up on it in one of the next calls.</div><div><br /></div><div>cheers,</div><div>Helvi<br /></div><div><br clear="all" /><div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">===========================================<br />
