History: Telling Tales: Stories from SIGGRAPH’s Past
DescriptionDo you have an interesting or funny story about a past SIGGRAPH conference to share?

Whether your story is touching like a marriage proposal in the middle of the SIGGRAPH Village, funny like racing serving trays down the stairs in a hotel lobby, or heartfelt like how SIGGRAPH was life-changing for you, this is a session where you can share your memories.

This event is a continuation of our effort to collect memories of the past and keep them alive. In 2023, IEEE Computers Graphics and Applications published The Big 50: Celebrating 50 SIGGRAPH Conferences and included over 200 memories and stories from community members.

This session will be structured as a series of lightning talks where attendees have up to 3 minutes to share an interesting SIGGRAPH or CG history story with the audience.
