Siggraph Stipend (Thanks Microsoft Research)
Everyone should try to make it to SIGGRAPH this year - especially 3rd year students thinking about how to design an interactive media experience for public presentation. 2nd year students would be wise to attend as they think about prior art and their work. 1st year students would benefit. . . well, see, everyone should go.
One day passes and student rates are available to keep costs down, and it is at the LA convention center - a stone's throw (if you have a really good arm) from USC.
Toward this end, the Immersive Lab, using funds from Microsoft Research, is offering 4 $100 stipends. Recipients will be asked to describe a notable exhibit at one of our weekly research meetings. If you are interested, please contact Bryan Jaycox for application details soon.

Some highlights of the conference are its Animation Theater and Electronic Theater presentations, where recently created CG films are played. There is a large exhibition floor, where several hundred companies set up elaborate booths and compete for attention and recruits. Most of the companies are in the engineering, graphics, motion picture, or video game industries. There are also many booths for schools which specialize in computer graphics or interactivity.
