Midori's
contributions to ACM SIGGRAPH
- The
first SIGGRAPH annual conference that I attended was SIGGRAPH 88 in Atlanta,
Georgia. A dozen of graduate students at OSU/ACCAD, including myself,
drove a van from Columbus, Ohio, to Georgia. I think the members included
Robert Lurye,
John
Chadwick, Chitra Shriram, Evelyn Hirata, Joan Stavery, Brian Guenter,
and Isabell Lebois. I can't remember who else drove together. Susan and
Michael,
were
you
with us??
- The heaviest SIGGRAPH volunteer committee job that I have had was the Chair of
SIGGRAPH 95 International Operations Committee. I could devote that much
time
to volunteer work for two years because 1. I was young.
2. I didn't have a little one waiting for me at home back then.
- The SIGGRAPH volunteer committee position that I have been holding for the longest
time (12 years!!) is the Japanese Liaison. My job is to create and maintain
collaborative relationships
between SIGGRAPH and organizations/individuals in Japan.
I have met so many wonderful people through SIGGRAPH. I enjoy meeting new and
old friends at SIGGRAPH every year.
