- June 07: Talk "Computing and Reality: Pursuing the Limit of Algorithms" at Sony CSL Open House / MVA'07/ Visualizing Bregman Voronoi diagrams (SoCG'07) / Clairvoyance (DOI 10.1109/IECON.2006.347546): invited paper@ISICE / Talk on (statistical) computational geometry at Kyoto CGGT / Fabrice Collaro (blog) filmed some demos (360-degree videos/Clairvoyance/RT segmentation/ClickRemoval; video here) for french TV channel: TF1 prime time news.
- Gave a talk: "Le futur de l'Informatique : L'Homme Cybernetique ?" (translated as "The future of Computing: Cybernetic Humans?") at UAG. There was also an airshow broadcasted by RCI "Les clefs pour comprendre" (meaning, Keys for understanding). Local TV ATV reported on our venue in Martinique and there was even a column in the France-Antilles! (May 2 2007). Thanks again to all members of CEREGMIA for their marvelous hospitality.
