Thanks everyone reviewing for SIGGRAPH! If you get an invite to review, please accept and invest the time to do it. Others are reviewing *your* papers, and the system only works if we all pitch in. This is a classic collective action problem: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collec…

Just realized that the seminal "Laplace-Beltrami: The Swiss Army Knife of Geometry Processing" by @JustinMSolomon @keenanisalive and @EtienneVouga was given first 10 years ago in SGP'14 (!) Can't wait for SGP'24 hosted at MIT!!
Just attended a faculty event in the @MITMuseum this morning, where SGP will hold its first social event. It’s a beautiful space and has interactive exhibits to play with! Including a triangle mesh right at the entrance.

SGP '24 is coming up!
If you register to join us at the Symposium on Geometry Processing this summer at @MIT @MIT_CSAIL—opening soon!—, we will reward you with one of these tiny stickers! (Ok, and several other perks/swag items to be announced soon.) In related news, I now realize how small 2”x2” is.

Cool stuff! Come see Michael's talk on Wed in the Fluid Simulation roundtable session (9 am, East Building, Ballroom A/B)
I'll be sharing our new VEMPIC fluid simulator at SIGGRAPH 2022! Learn how the Virtual Element Method, Cut-Cell Meshes, and Particle-in-Cell fluid simulation naturally complement one another! Project: dgp.toronto.edu/projects/vem… Video: youtu.be/V8Hlt66qrys

I'm teaching the "Matter of Perspective" course again in the spring semester. We'll have new cool projects following the design->algorithms->fabrication concept. More details here: mop.net.technion.ac.il/. Feel free to contact me if you have questions.
