		Next meeting Tuesday, November 3rd, will be the first meeting we've had in a while. We're going to screen biological and scientific animations from the 2006-2009 SIGGRAPH Animation Festivals in the conference room in building 31A.

After the initial biology related movies, I'll be happy to show other movies from the disks. You can see listings of the movies on the 12 disks here: http://www.siggraph.org/publications/video-review/index.php

FYI: I'm missing one disk from 2008, but I should be able to borrow this from a friend for the meeting.

If you have any movies or animations that you'd likie to show or that you're working on, please bring them!

Please join the Listserv to keep up with the discussion.

Visualization of anatomical, cellular and molecular concepts is an efficient method of communicating information. Creating animations and interactive applications is getting easier and faster, but requires efficient interaction of technological specialists and content experts. The purpose of the Biological Visualization Interest Group is to build a community centered on sharing resources and providing feedback to help improve the quality and efficiency of creating content. Meetings serve as a venue to highlight animations, demonstrate visual and interactive technologies and to create a forum for discussion and direct feedback.

Researchers, fellows, animators, programmers and anyone interested in learning more about biology and animation are all welcome to attend.

Special sessions, such as workshops and demonstrations will be announced in the future. Collaborations and affiliations with other interest groups, societies and organizations are encouraged.

Meetings will be on the first Monday of each month at 5:30 PM in the NICHD Conference Room (Building 31, room 2A48; subscribe to the ICS or XML to keep up with events.
