first time in >10 years I won’t got to #siggraph. I don't think it is the right time to travel to the U.S. And there are others who don't want to or can't travel there either. #acm decided to cancel the virtual tickets. I'm looking forward to the next SIGGRAPH in #Vancouver. #usa #trump #science
Every one of my 3 #SIGGRAPH 2026 has one review (of four) that gptzero detects as 100% AI generated (not ai polished, or mixed, but 100% generated). 2/3 of those AI tagged reviews argue to reject the paper.

NVIDIA ACE at SIGGRAPH. Real-time NPC voice and facial anim. It’s a load shift. Artists lose the safety of vetted viewports; rigs now have to work every time, not just once. Tech is impressive. The lead-gen spam hitting my inbox before I've left the floor? Less so.

Having fun trying out concepts with My Custom Tunes. I whipped up a promotional song to call for #SIGGRAPH Student Volunteers.

Thought so since 1989. There was some wildly prophetic work at #SIGGRAPH and the #Biennale that year.

"The Adventures of André and Wally B.", released in 1984.
Next year is Pixar's 40th anniversary, so I decided to show my praise a bit early with André and Wally B.!
(Even though this short was released in 1984, I don't care.)

At #SIGGRAPH, I had the pleasure of co-presenting with Scarlett Kim, director and creative producer at C.U.T.E., on theatrical and theoretical perspectives on virtual puppetry. We made a call for deeper interdisciplinary engagement between artists and researchers.

Grateful for a summer of research, collaboration, and connecting with XR+game studies communities. Some highlights:
✅ Completed my research scientist internship at Meta Reality Labs Research
✅ Co-presented at the #SIGGRAPH Spatial Storytelling demos
✅ Presented at the BIPOC Game Studies conference
All slides from this year’s Advances In Real-Time Rendering In Game course at #SIGGRAPH are now online… some really good stuff in there you shouldn’t miss:

Had a great time at #Vancouver 🇨🇦 during the @almalinux.org conference. I speak about the @grafana.bsky.social OSS Stack for Linux 🐧 container observability 🔭. Speak in front of very core Linux professional users & also had fun in doing bike tour 😎.
