The new SIGGRAPH chair Ronen Barzel sits down for an interview with Bill Desowitz at VFXWorld and they discuss some of the new things in Computer Graphics and SIGGRAPH in general.  In particular, they discuss the new focus on Audio this year:

This isn’t a new notion, and there has been work at SIGGRAPH on multisensory experiences, haptic interfaces and so forth for many years. However, this year we felt we wanted to highlight it explicitly. In particular, we’re focusing on music and audio, since sound is such a crucial component of movies, games and human interaction. And, of course, the focus on music resonates with SIGGRAPH coming back to New Orleans — with the rich musical backdrop that this city provides. (Plus, New Orleans’ cuisine gives extra stimulation to the sense of taste!)
