Syndicate: Submit a Sketch to SIGGRAPH 98



			SUBMIT A SKETCH TO SIGGRAPH 98


There's still time to participate in SIGGRAPH 98!
Deadline for Sketches is 5pm Eastern Daylight Time, April 1, 1998.

Anything related to computer graphics is open for consideration in the
Sketches program.  Sketches provide a forum for interchange of unique,
interesting ideas and techniques in computer graphics.  Sketch
abstracts will be published in an appropriate SIGGRAPH 98 publication.
Submit your latest research, designs, artwork and animations.

Sketches are lively presentations of interesting new ideas, unique
collaborations, late-breaking results, works in progress, and novel
applications of computer graphics techniques and technology. Because
their format promotes audience feedback, live demonstrations, and
lively discussion, Sketches recapture some of the immediacy and
intimacy of the early SIGGRAPH conferences.

Sketches are ideal opportunities for artists, designers, animators, or
engineers who want to explain how they created their work.

There are four Sketch categories (these are intended as a guide --
don't let the fact that your submission does not fall neatly into one of
these categories prevent you from submitting a sketch.):

	Technical	Authors are invited to submit descriptions of
			their latest research works in progress, and
			technical innovations.

	Art & Design	Artists and graphic designers are invited to
			submit descriptions of graphic designs that
			utilize unique or interesting ideas.

	Animations	Computer animators are invited to present
			descriptions of their latest techniques and
			products for producing animations.

	Applications	Organizations or individuals are invited to
			submit proposals for demonstrations or
			presentations of computer graphics
			technologies applied in the real world.  The
			emphasis is on the practical use of computer
			graphics as a tool for solving everyday problems.

Each accepted Sketch receives one Conference Access registration and
one copy of the appropriate conference publication.
