SIGGRAPH2011
The 38th International Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Technologies will take place in Vancouver in 2011. SIGGRAPH is an international collaboration of unique individuals: artists, scientists, engineers, and producers, all of whom contribute to the quickly evolving computer graphics community. As these multi-faceted talents discover and create, the business models that support their achievements evolve as well. SIGGRAPH 2011 presents a one-day business summit focusing on the industries that arise from the SIGGRAPH community. Through discussion-based sessions and inspiring presentations, the day illuminates the vital components of the new global economy, and how our industry is adapting. Learn more at SIGGRAPH2011.

The 21st Annual FLAIRS Conference
From its inception, one major goal of the Florida AI Research Society has been to promote AI thorough a conference. In 1995 the conference title was changed to "The International FLAIRS Conference" to recognize the contribution of the international participants within the conference. The last several years has seen a fairly even split of conference participants between Floridians, North Americans, and Internationals. SFU cognitive scientists Jeff Pelletier, Jim Delgrande, and Matt Sunderson presented at last year’s conference. Visit the FLAIRS website to learn more about the upcoming conference.
University of Toronto Interdisciplinary Symposium on the Mind 2008
UTISM is a biennial conference that brings together students and scholars for stimulating intellectual exchange, from diverse perspectives and across disciplinary boundaries, on the study of the mind. The theme for this year's symposium is "Mind Embodied, Embedded, Extended and Expanding". We hope to give students and scholars a chance to collectively reflect on lessons we have learned since the "embodied-mind revolution", the "situated sea-change", and the "extended-mind movement" of the 1990s, and to move beyond reactions to traditional intellectualistic and individualistic models of the mind towards a positive, forward-looking cognitive science that does justice to our inexorable physical and physiological embodiment, our inextricable material and ecological enmeshing in the world, our unspoken daily reliance on tools and instruments, and our living immersion in language, society, culture and history that have always already constituted what it is to be a mind. Visit UTISM 2008's website for more.
