These images are from our trip to Los Angeles to attend the 2005 SIGGRAPH conference.  SIGGRAPH is the special interest group of the IEEE society. Basically, in any situation where computers are used to mediate images, such as TV, cinema, computer games, fine art, scientific visualization, remote collaboration, rapid prototyping, marketing and bioscience, the shakers movers creators and dreamers  are fully represented at a SIG. We had a chance to visit Little Tokyo as well as Chinatown and the Getty.  I absolutely love some of these snaps which reflect the diversity and color LA and being at a SIGGRAPH. I can highly recommend attending a SIGGRAPH at least once, you might get hooked.
