The mission of the ACM SIGGRAPH Digital Arts Committee is to foster year-round engagement and dialogue within the digital, electronic, computational, and media arts. We facilitate dynamic scholarship and creative programming within the ACM SIGGRAPH organization. Our goal is to promote collaboration between artists and the larger computer graphics and interactive techniques community. This session will describe the activities of the DAC, highlighting the SPARKS Lightning talks series, our online exhibitions, and other programs and activities associated with the group.
