SyysGraph 2012 Wednesday, November 21 1:00pm - 5:00pm

Every six months we take a look at what's new & hot in the Finnish computer graphics & interaction scene. SyysGraph is a chance to hear about the latest research, and mingle with other people in the industry & academia.

The seminar will bring the latest updates of the 3D graphics field, demos, animations and new interactive technologies. The presentations are held in English and targeted for a general audience; no advance knowledge of computer graphics is required.

The entry fee is 20€ (same price for students and non-students). The ONLY WAY to register to the event this year is by buying a ticket in advance from https://holvi.com/shop/slush/product/a89a5ba18a0f1c531d16acfdefa9ee94/ . Note that "attending" the event on the FB page is not sufficient for registration - you need to buy the ticket on the web. There are no ticket sales at the door!

Note that people registered for Slush can attend SyysGraph without buying a separate ticket.

The event is held at the old Cable Factory (Tallberginkatu 1 C).
