[ACM SIGGRAPH Awards Deadline]
2016 Award Nomination Deadlines

Each year, ACM SIGGRAPH bestows a small number of awards to members of the computer graphics community, in recognition of exceptional achievements in computer graphics and interactive techniques. ACM SIGGRAPH members are encouraged to submit nominations, but the deadlines are rapidly approaching. The 2016 awards program is significant in that it marks the launch of a brand new award: the Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award, which recognizes a recent Ph.D. graduate who has made a notable contribution very early during their doctoral study. For more information, or to submit a nomination, visit theACM SIGGRAPH awards page.

[Science of the Unseen Art Show]
Science of the Unseen: Digital Art Perspectives

Submissions open on December 15 for the Digital Arts Community online exhibition, Science of the Unseen: Digital Art Perspectives. In this show, artworks will converge with scientific experiment, illustrating how digital tools can be used to creatively reinterpret the imperceptible. Though interest in DAC art shows has always been high, at the beginning of next year, the Digital Arts Community will initiate a new promotional strategy for their exhibitions, to open them up to an even wider audience -- making this an excellent time to participate. For more information on submitting to Science of the Unseen, visit the call for submissions.

[SIGGRAPH 2015 Crowd]
XSV Program for SIGGRAPH 2016

The Ex-Student Volunteer (XSV) Program is returning this year to SIGGRAPH, and will be operated by the SIGGRAPH Student Services Committee (S3). Ex-SVs have until Jan 29 to apply for the program; selected applicants will receive full conference registration and personal mentoring. Conference program leaders and ACM SIGGRAPH committee chairs are invited to submit requests for ex-SVs to work with their groups at SIGGRAPH 2016 (deadline: Jan 22). Please contact S3 for more information.

[Bogota Conference]
Papers Program at Bogotá ACM SIGGRAPH Conference

The Bogotá ACM SIGGRAPH chapter's annual conference, which has historically received more than 3,000 attendees, will include an academic research papers program in 2016. Accepted journal-quality papers will be published in Computers and Graphics. Columbia's Ministry of Information Technology and Communications has agreed to subsidize the conference, and pay travel for delegates with accepted papers and financial need; specifically, South American researchers who have insufficient research funds. Research papers from outside of South America are encouraged, and the call for papers will be available soon.

Science of the Unseen: Digital Art Perspectives

Translate this post: Korean, Spanish, Chinese, French, Portuguese


On Line Exhibition
of the ACM SIGGRAPH Digital Art Community

What goes unseen, unfelt, or unheard? In this online exhibition, the artworks converge with scientific experiment, using digital tools to creatively reinterpret the imperceptible and science of the unseen.

Artworks in Science of the Unseen: Digital Art Perspectives think creatively about questions of scale and how unseen processes animate larger effects. By using digital tools and computational programs, we see with new eyes as we view visual material from the microscopic cell to the cosmic universe. Technology increasingly alters the senses and our experience of the biological, astrological, and geological landscape. From our new ways of seeing, questions emerge such as: how does nano-technology mirror and magnify the art of nature? How does visualizing insect burrows in trees allow us to interpret a larger ecosystem? Or we can ask what still remains unseen: how do organisms form new imperceptible habits in response to technology?
