Meet like-minded people
You are part of a group of professionals and enthusiasts in computer
graphics, animation and virtual reality. You have opportunities to meet
each other at various gatherings the Chapter organizes. There are all
sorts of people in the society - website, games and virtual reality
developers, animation artists, graphics professionals, researchers,
academics ... People who have talents to offer, people who have jobs
looking for talents, people who are just mad about the artistry in
computer graphics, people who can make your ideas dance on a computer,
they are all here. Aren't you missing out?
Keep up-to-date early
You can get the latest technology development fast, from information
disseminated through Siggraph, our parent organization in the USA.
For example, we obtain the Siggraph Technical and Electronic Theater
videos from the annual Siggraph conference and screen them for our members.
Invariably, our audiences are captivated by what they see. They get to
learn new things too. We also channel news from individual members to the
society at large.
Interact at Members' forum
Join in at talks and presentations where we discuss topics of common
interest. There will be lead-speakers on a subject - say on the use of 3D
Studio - and you can come and participate, and get tips on how to exploit
the system to the full. Or the topic may be on graphics hardware - what
you should look out for and which system gives the best value for money.
This is a lively place where we bounce ideas - you can catch and exploit
them. You can exhibit your creative flair too, either by leading a
discussion or just participating.
Attend Technical talks
This is somewhat more technical than the Members' Forum. An expert will
discuss how certain techniques work, such as ray tracing for
photo-realistic rendering, or intelligent life-like animation. Such
sessions will let you know how to best exploit a technique, and what not
to do. It will also cover breaking technology - what you can expect to
see in the next generation of graphics and animation systems. Whenever
the opportunity arises, we invite experts of international renown.
Visit companies and institutions
We organize visits to interesting places that do work in our field.
Places include the Computer Graphics Research Lab at NUS, the Centre for
Graphics and Imaging Technology at NTU, the Digital Media Design Centre
at Nanyang Polytechnic, and the Institute for High Performance Computing
at the Science
Park.
Help make it all happen
Come and be a part of a community which aims to enrich Singapore in computer
graphics, animation and virtual reality, and in the process, enrich
ourselves. We value your contribution, however big (or small). We are all
volunteers, with our heart and mind in the right place. That's all you
need to have to join us.
We are always looking for new people with new ideas to keep
Singapore Chapter of SIGGRAPH vibrant, interesting, efficient, and fun.
The opportunities for involvement are as varied as our activities.
Inquiries regarding volunteering for Singapore Chapter of SIGGRAPH
activities may be directed to Assoc Prof Seah
Hock Soon, Singapore Chapter of SIGGRAPH President, at ashsseah@ntu.edu.sg
