A friend of mine asked me to do him a favor, which, of course, involves me asking you all for information. Has anyone ever heard of the company Si Graph? My friend pronounces this "See Graph". In the same sentence, he also mentioned Pixar, LucasFilms, and fractals, so I think I am correct in directing the question to comp.graphics. I'm hoping he doesn't mean Silicon Graphics. An email address, Snail-Mail address, telephone number, or the name of a periodical where they regularly advertise would be greatly appreciated. Please email me... I don't read this group regularly (or at all, for that matter.) -Rodney (boleyn@grasp.cis.upenn.edu)

It sounds like your friend might be referring to SIGGRAPH, which is not a company per se, but the Graphics Special Interest Group of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). SIGGRAPH is the main forum for professional work done in the computer graphics field. [ I doubt your friend means Silicon Graphics, though if you're looking for their address, you may find it in my signature (if you look hard enough ;-) ] >An email address, Snail-Mail address, telephone number, or the name >of a periodical where they regularly advertise would be greatly >appreciated. The address for the ACM is: The Association for Computing Machinery 11 West 42nd Street New York, New York 10036 As far as periodicals, you won't find SIGGRAPH advertised much, but there are several SIGGRAPH publications, primarily SIGGRAPH conference proceedings and ACM Transactions on Graphics. Hope this helps. -Doug Doug Cook M/S 7U-550 |" ...hello honey... i hope i didn't Video Group, Advanced Systems Division | wake you up, but i had to hear your Silicon Graphics, Inc. | voice... i'm standing in another 2011 N.
