Please join me in voicing concerns about the decision to hold SIGGRAPH Asia 2026 in Malaysia, where LGBTQ+ people face criminalization and violence.

In an open letter (link below) we also call for process changes to ensure future venue decisions reflect the values of safety and inclusion.

Congratulations to Bernhard for his first #SIGGRAPH paper! Great work 👍 His two-phase Navier-Stokes solver is even more impressive given the fact that it's all done on a regular workstation, and without requiring a GPU... Enjoy the snippet below, and watch the other super-hi-res sims in full screen & hi-quality here: https://youtu.be/nt9BohngvoE

@beforesmag not full but at least a good start for planning purposes #SIGGRAPH

@jorge @neal @centos some pain points about vendors not supporting Linux, questions about integration with collaboration apps like Zoom and Slack, hardware enablement on newer devices (and printing! This one I know to be broken on EL10 but haven't dug into yet so I will try to fix it in the desktop build later).

But people seem to really want something like this, I don't normally get that many questions.

Hoping to shop this around later at #SIGGRAPH too and probably spin it out as a separate SIG later this year if people are interested in contributing

Maybe too late, but I hope @ACM #SIGGRAPH considers moving the conference put of the US, next 4 years. You know, Toronto and Montreal have nice convention centers as well
