SIGGRAPH 2015 Links

Once again, I’m collecting links to SIGGRAPH content: courses, talks, posters, etc. I’ll continue to update the post as new stuff appears; if you’re aware of anything that’s not listed here, please let me know in the comments.

Note: The ACM is also providing open access to all of the content1 for a limited time2, as they did last year. (This probably explains why it’s taking a while for some of the material to show up elsewhere.)
