Pervasive Studio people are invited to come along to the Bristol SIGGRAPH Chapter startup networking event on the 17th of March.

ACM SIGGRAPH is the largest community of researchers, artists,
developers and anyone enthusiastic about Computer Graphics and
Interactive Techniques. ACM SIGGRAPH chapters exist in numerous areas
around the world, bringing together the local graphics communities,
enabling them to transfer knowledge and skills, meet like-minded
people and learn about new developments in the area throughout the year.

The Bristol Student SIGGRAPH Chapter was founded in 2002 and has been
run since then by students in the Graphics Group at the University of
Bristol with great success. In parallel to our Student Chapter, we
have decided to found a Professional Chapter for Bristol and
surrounding areas, aiming to bring like-minded people together through
a variety of educational, networking and entertainment events. By
providing a forum for interaction between researchers, developers,
artists and professionals in the area of computer graphics, we hope to
contribute to a vibrant local community and help to provide contacts,
enable networking, and facilitate knowledge transfer between our
members.

Our first event will be taking place on the 17th of March, starting at
7pm at the Merchant Venturer's Building (part of the University of
Bristol). There will be a presentation explaining the benefits of an
ACM SIGGRAPH Chapter, our future plans and how you can be a part of
our Chapter, followed by a wine reception!

We would be delighted to see you and your colleagues there! Please do
not hesitate to contact us with any questions.
