SIGGRAPH CONFERENCE

Who all is actually going?  It would be nice to book together, so those who are for sure attending this summer please raise your hands so we can get started and nab some cheaper lodging.  Details about the conference can be found at the SIGGRAPH website.

NEXT MEETING: Sunday the 29th at Joel Johnson’s house

Doors open at 3:00

Festivities (aka food) start at 5:00

Come and go as you please.  Rain date is the following Sunday

Please bring something for the group to eat and post what you’re bringing on the forum so we don’t all bring the same thing.

Meetings will be every other week from now on.  THERE IS NO MEETING THIS WEEK.

This weekend, there’s an Anime/Scifi Convention at  St. Louis Marriott West.  $40 for weekend passes.  Several Webster SIGGRAPH members have booths there, and if you volunteer you can get in free.  Talk to Jeremy for more volunteering information, he will refer you to the head honcho.
