Bio:
SIGGRAPH 1996
Geoff Wyvill is an Associate Professor at the University of Otago, New Zealand and Director of Animation Research Limited. He is known for pioneering work in polygonizing implicit surfaces and ray tracing, especially the efficient ray tracing of CSG systems. He is an Executive editor of ‘Virtual Reality’ and serves on the editorial boards of ‘The Visual Computer’, ‘Computer Graphics Forum’ and ‘Visualization and Computer Animation’. He contributed to the films ‘Soft’ (1985) ‘Great Train Rubbery’ (1988) and ‘Fashion Show’ (1992) as well as numerous TV commercials and channel animations. His company, ARL, has won eleven national and international awards for animation all of which has been produced using ‘Katachi’ Geo ‘s CSG, ray tracing and animation software. He has a BA in physics from Oxford University and MSc and PhD degrees in computer science from the University of Bradford.
