Special guest of this first public presentation of the Munich ACM Siggraph Chapter in the Bavarian capitol town is Paul Debevec.

Also included is Geek's home, a museum founded by Thomas Harbers with a hands-on approach. The model was the Exploratorium, a museum in San Francisco, that is focused on the teaching of natural sciences. The event concludes with current movies from CAF - the Computer Animation Festival.
The Munich ACM SIGGRAPH Chapter aims to support science, research, art, culture and education.
Especially by arranging scientific events in the field of computer graphics, interactive technologies and their application areas, we offer broad access to new knowledge in these fields and enabling their dissemination.
