Ton has just posted an utterly amazing overview of his conversations at and around SIGGRAPH. It's a fascinating read, and a sure sign of how the industry's opinion of Blender is rapidly changing.
This year was the 25th anniversary of my SIGGRAPH membership (I am a proud member since ’91)! It was also my 18th visit in a row to the annual convention (since ’99). We didn’t have a booth on the trade show this year though. Expenses are so high! Since 2002 we exhibited 7 times, we skipped years more often, but since 2011 we were there every year. The positive side of not exhibiting was that I finally had time and energy to have meetings and participate in other events.
