Space-Time Student Competition 1997

The Student Poster and Animation Competition and Exhibition (SPACE) is
now in its 12th year as a SIGGRAPH Education Committee event.
Participation in this competition and exhibition continues to grow as
well as the quality of the entries. SPACE provides a
n excellent opportunity for students working with computers to exhibit
their creative work. It is open to all students currently attending
elementary or secondary schools, colleges or universities. We encourage
teachers to have their students enter SPACE
either through class projects or individual interest.

The theme for SPACE 97 was "Technological Tides" in the spirit of this
year’s conference theme of "exploring the next wave of digital
technology." The poster jury selected 41 very creative artworks from
the 203 entries, a record number of submissions. The animation jury
reviewed over 75 entries, more submissions than ever before and the
selections resulted in an outstanding show.

For the past five years, after its initial exhibition at the SIGGRAPH
conference, SPACE has traveled nationally for one year to 12-14 sites;
it will travel again this year (check out the
tour).
For the first time last year, SPACE was also exhibited in Japan as part
of the Lifelong Learning Festivals - Manabi Pia Fukuoka 96 sponsored by
the Ministry of Education and Computer Graphic Arts Society. We are
excited to report that SPACE 97 also has been invited to Japan in November for
exhibition at their 1997 conference. After showing in Japan, SPACE 97
will be on an
international tour as well.

During the next year, the animations may be seen at the
Information Age exhibition in the Smithsonian Institution, Washington,
D.C. Additionally, SPACE 92-97 may be viewed on the SIGGRAPH Education
