			     SIGGRAPH '91 Slide Sets
			     Call for Participation

		       Submissions deadline: 20 March 1991
		    Conference dates: 28 July - 2 August 1991
================================================================================

Each year the SIGGRAPH conference committee requests computer-generated images
that demonstrate improved techniques, algorithms, and procedures for inclusion
in 35 mm slide sets.  SIGGRAPH slide sets represent the state of the art in
computer graphics.  They provide images for opening sessions, promotional
pieces, media inquiries, and educational endeavors.  The slide sets are also
sold at the conference and afterward as a publication documenting computer
graphics for the year.

The SIGGRAPH conference committee encourages you to submit your slides for the
SIGGRAPH '91 slide sets.  To encourage high-quality and state-of-the-art
submissions, the following criteria will be used to review each slide:

+ Is there a new application area in computer graphics that is being documented?

+ What makes the image special or technically outstanding?

+ Which algorithms, techniques, or procedures are new or improved compared to
  previous works?

+ Is the visual content outstanding?

The SIGGRAPH '91 conference committee will produce a technical slide set and,
depending on the volume and focus of submissions, will consider producing a
stereoscopic 3D slide set and/or an industry slide set.  When submitting your
slides, indicate which category you prefer.  If any slide set for which only
a limited number of slides has been submitted is not produced, those slides
will automatically be considered for the technical slide set.
