ACM SIGGRAPH Announces SIGGRAPH 2004 will be 8 - 12 August, in Los Angeles, California
(Chicago, IL- July 23, 2003) ACM SIGGRAPH today announced that SIGGRAPH
2004, the 31st International Conference on Computer Graphics and Interactive
Techniques, will be 8 - 12 August, in Los Angeles, California, at the Los
Angeles Convention Center.
"We are very pleased with the selection of Los Angeles as the host city for
SIGGRAPH 2004," said Dena Slothower, SIGGRAPH 2004 Conference Chair from
Stanford University. "Both our attendees and exhibitors prefer a West Coast
location, and we are happy to be able to accommodate them by returning to
Los Angeles."
"Los Angeles is thrilled to welcome back SIGGRAPH 2004," said Bill Buckley,
EVP Sales at the Los Angeles Convention & Visitors Bureau. "SIGGRAPH and LA
have a fantastic synergy and we appreciate the opportunity to have them back
in our city."
SIGGRAPH 2004 is the fifth time SIGGRAPH has been in Los Angeles in recent
history. SIGGRAPH was in Los Angeles in 1995, 1997, 1999, and 2001. It is
the perfect location for SIGGRAPH 2004 as the entertainment and game
development communities are among the largest consumers and developers of
computer graphics and interactive technology. SIGGRAPH 2004 hopes to bring
more than 25,000 computer graphics and interactive professionals from around
the world to the city for the 5-day conference and 3-day exhibition.
SIGGRAPH 2004 is currently looking for submissions for the SIGGRAPH 2004
programs. For information about contributing, see the Call for Participation.
The annual SIGGRAPH conference is sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH, the leading
professional society for computer graphics and interactive techniques.
