I've attended SIGGRAPH Asia twice before and plan to again this year. However, I'll stop submitting my research there and encourage others to do the same unless SIGGRAPH Asia 2026 is moved to a country where its safe to be LGBTQ #boycottSIGGRAHASIA2026

According to the SIGGRAPH Executive Committee Meeting Minutes, SIGGRAPH Asia 2026 will take place in Malasyia, the *second most deadly country for trans people in the entire world*

My superstar student Mark Gillespie is on the academic job market 🤩: markjgillespie.com Beyond lots of beautiful, deep, award-winning research in geometry processing, he's just a terrific person who we already miss having around. Twist his arm if you want him to apply!

First post on BlueSky and it’s a big one: I have successfully defended my Ph. D. thesis today! Super grateful for my time at the McGill Graphics Lab and the amazing opportunities I’ve had throughout the years. Onto the next adventure! 🙂

“I'm writing a first draft and reminding myself that I'm simply shoveling sand into a box so that later I can build castles.” This was probably my most viral tweet. I've seen it pop up in a lot of quote aggregators, sometimes attributed to a wonderful but definitely not-me filmmaker.
