SIGGRAPH Day 4
Aug. 3rd, 2005 11:38 pmMore courses. More walking the expo floor. More parties. Need sleep.
The key lesson of the day was that I don't particularly value things whose key attribute is exclusivity. The SIGGRAPH reception was too large as always, and the private party was too cliquish since it was held in probably the most cliquish club in downtown LA and had to make people sit around and wait until other people left to be let in. Maybe I'd have been more impressed I was into boozing. Still, I suppose getting what is on the other side of the velvet rope and realizing it isn't something I wanted in the first place is a valuable lesson.
