The syllabus for this year's Physically Based Shading course at SIGGRAPH is out, and it's great! Lots of super cool topics, including two from my old pal Peter Kutz. I'm only attending virtually this year, but I'd go to this course in person if I could! blog.selfshadow.com/publications/s…

Spherical harmonics are widely used in graphics. Ever wondered how to compute their derivatives? My High-Perf Graphics 2025 poster shows that it is basically free. It also comes with a code generator for C, C++, Python, GLSL and HLSL to compute SH with derivatives. momentsingraphics.de/HPGPoster2025.…

We're presenting at #SIGGRAPH2025! 🚀 We use adaptive tetrahedral grids (via the LEB algorithm) to GPU path trace volumetric production assets. Fewer neighbors, less memory, real-time performance—up to 30× faster than regular grids. ggx-research.github.io/publication/20…

Excited to share 2025 update from our team, including our presence at #HPG and #SIGGRAPH: community.intel.com/t5/Blogs/Tech-… We focus on visual efficiency and democratizing high-end visual experiences.

Very happy to receive a #SIGGRAPH2025 Best Paper Award (Honorable Mention) for our RSP algorithm, which dices surfaces into near-perfect rectangles. Such meshes are useful for everything from retopology, to microfluidic simulation, to textile design, to architectural geometry.

All High-Perf Graphics 2025 papers are now available on the EG digital library. CGF papers: diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312… Conference papers: diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312… It has been a huge honor to act as HPG papers chair and guest editor and I look forward to an exciting program in Copenhagen.
