SIGGRAPH, Autodesk Take Time Tunnel Through Computer Graphics History On 50th Anniversary

SIGGRAPH – the giant gathering of technologist, engineers, researchers, artists, game-creators, Hollywood visual effects gurus and others who’ve transformed the world’s computer graphics – is celebrating its 50th anniversary in Los Angeles this week with a “time tunnel” immersive experience showing where CGI has been, and where it’s going.

The organization partnered with graphics software giant Autodesk and a student team at the University of California, Santa Barbara, to create the tunnel, which opens today in the Concourse Foyer of the Los Angeles Convention Center, where the broader SIGGRAPH conference will be held through Thursday.
