Thanks for the links.

But i would like to read the paper, to understand Mario's lecture a bit more. I cant seem to find it, without being a member of Siggraph or something.

Hey Andrew,

It would seem that the preprint version of that paper (which was available for free for a very long time), has been taken down. It's now only available through the ACM digital library. You could purchase the final version from the library if you wish (as far as I can tell, both versions are identical).

I hesitate to post the preprint here as I'm unsure of the copyright issues (even though that version was available for free for.. oh… a year at least).

cheers Mario.

After reading your post i searched one more time, and I found it. The thing is I have the feeling its safe for people to view, because the actual link to download the paper is www.acm.org.

So i would assume it would be ok, right?

Let me know if am in the right or wrong?

I believe Mario is correct - there is a price to acquire it. Last time I checked the ACM download was part of their digital library and there was a (small) cost to acquire it(which comes up when you try to download it). Certainly if you find a link at the ACM site that lets you snag it for free, however, there's nothing wrong with that!

Cheers,

J.C.

Then i guess if anyone wants the paper the link is outthere.

I wont draw attention by posting the actual link because that will no doubt be passed around and will get back to the people at acm who will remove the paper.

Although looking at their site, i think it would be a worthwhile investment purchasing some of their yearly compilations of technical papers. alot of ideas and theories that have yet to make it mainstream or have died because no one is willing to develop the ideas.
