ACM SIGGRAPH Education Committee - SpaceTime

SpaceTime 2025: Call for Submissions

wobbe — Tue, 01 Oct 2024 04:00:00 +0000

The ACM SIGGRAPH Education Committee sponsors the SpaceTime juried international student art/design competition and online exhibition for 2025. Students are asked to create a graphic poster for SIGGRAPH 2025, which is scheduled to take place in August in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The poster must refer directly to SIGGRAPH and include the word “SIGGRAPH” and/or the SIGGRAPH logo as part of the design. Inclusion of the dates (either the year and/or the month) and/or location of the conference on the poster is at the discretion of the designer.
SIGGRAPH is a global non-profit organization that serves the evolution of computer graphics and interactive techniques and has thousands of members that include innovative researchers, artists, architects, developers, filmmakers, scientists, educators and business professionals helping to build the future of digital art and interactive design. The theme for this poster must relate to the mission of SIGGRAPH. For guidance, a good theme to design around is “Immersive Futures: Blending Realities” looking at how these blended realities can enrich our lives and foster deeper connections with nature.

The competition provides an excellent opportunity for students to exhibit their computer-based creative work. A selection of international jurors will judge entries based on the submitted work, relevance to SIGGRAPH, artistic merit, design quality, originality, technical excellence, content, and a review of the process to determine how the work was done.

Selected works may be exhibited by the ACM SIGGRAPH Education Committee at the SIGGRAPH 2025 conference in Vancouver and/or the SIGGRAPH Asia 2025 conference in Hong Kong, online on the Education Committee website, and in promotional materials. Submission grants nonexclusive rights to ACM SIGGRAPH and the ACM SIGGRAPH Education Committee to display the work.

New for 2025: as part of this education-focused competition, students will be required to submit two images. One submission image will be the final poster, and the second will be a composite image showing the process of creation (this refers to in-progress images, scanned traditional media and/or digital sketches, screen captures, and AI text-based prompts). The progress images should be composited into one image for review by the judges. The use Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI or AI) is allowed (not required) but its use must be fully documented in the process image and technical statement. Text prompts and any individual manipulation of the AI program should also be made clear.

AI Guidelines: It is not required that any student use generative artificial intelligence to complete this project. AI may be used in this competition, but students should be aware of the possibility of bias, incomplete and/or inaccurate information, plagiarism, and issues of data privacy. Students are responsible for all information or work presented that is generated in any capacity with AI tools, must cite the use of AI, and document intermediate design steps showing text and prompts, including any images generated by AI. Tool(s) used must be cited. Do not simply copy and paste AI-generated material and claim it as your own.

It is expected that the first-place winner will receive one full conference registration or, if under the age of 18, two experience-level registrations (one for adult companion/guardian) plus tickets to the animation festival. Two runners up will each receive 50% off conference registration.
