1. A teleconference computer hardware system, comprising:
- a hardware processor configured to initiate the following executable operations;
conducting a first conference call between a plurality of hardware devices connected to the teleconference computer hardware system using a network;
receiving, from a user associated with a first hardware device of the plurality of hardware devices, a request to join a second conference call that is related to the first conference call;
joining, based upon the request, the first hardware device to the second conference call;
disconnecting, in association with the joining, the first hardware device from the first conference call while still conducting the first conference call between other users of the plurality of hardware devices;
generating computer data that represents visualizations, respectively, of the first and second conference calls; and
sending, over the network and to the plurality of hardware devices, the computer data, whereinthe plurality of hardware devices are configured to generate, using the computer data, concurrent visualizations of both the first and second conference calls.
