SIGGRAPH 09 Photo Album: Post Yours/Tell us your conference tales

[JCork]

Good idea Roberto!

Everyone can check out my blog: http://joshcorken.blogspot.com throughout the week and after to see pictures and writing about all the events I've been to. I'd rather not flood the internet with that stuff by re-posting. Haha!

Anyways, enjoy the posts, if you choose to read them. I think they're quite ammusing if I say so myself. The "What NOT to do at SIGGRAPH NOLA" is a favorite of the bunch.

Only 3 hours of sleep? I've been getting 10 hours lately. Although I miss breakfast and whatever happens before 1pm. Did have Falafel at 1 am though.

I just ran into Roberto while at the Mothership booth. It was a good time that involved alien hats and blow-up aliens. He should have some pics of it.

Anyway, to stay on topic I forgot my cable for my camera so my pics will have to wait until I get home on Saturday. I can't wait to see everyone's pictures!

Heck yes! Maybe 4-6 on a good night. But, I'm up early for the first events at SIGGRAPH and out late to experience the night life. I come to SIGGRAPH prepared to loose quite a bit of sleep and that's acceptable to me. Haha!

They seriously need to sell Redbull at the Convention Center. Still I got about 6 hours sleep per night.

I need to download my pictures, took a ton not only from SIGGRAPH but from New Orleans as well.

These were all taken by my good buddy (and sound designer extraordinaire) Jim, except one for which we asked a pretty girl to take a picture of us together.

Taken as we drove by the conference center our first day in New Orleans. The angle's not for dramatic effect; it was just the best we could do from a moving vehicle.

http://www.patfour.com/other/SIGGRAPH_photos/02_screening_room.jpg
La Nouvelle Orleans Ballroom, where most of the CAF screenings took place - empty the day before the conference began.

Jim and me making a stop in front of the St. Louis Cathedral as we wandered New Orleans.

http://www.patfour.com/other/SIGGRAPH_photos/04_me_and_mike.jpg
My old buddy Mike and me, reunited at last... he never saw that FJORG hat coming.

The hall of floats leading up to Thursday night's reception.

Pose-off!

http://www.patfour.com/other/SIGGRAPH_photos/07_line_for_mater.jpg
The enormous line for Tokyo Mater.

A stranger on the last day of the conference... someone had a little too much SIGGRAPH.

http://www.patfour.com/other/SIGGRAPH_photos/08_yawn.jpg
Café Du Monde, our last stop in New Orleans before leaving town. It's the day after SIGGRAPH, and I'm yawning.

As we left town, we didn't realize until too late it was "Red Dress Day," which is apparently Creole for "cross-dressing traffic jam."
