چکیده

Gabriel Taubin has graciously invited me to write this issue’s From the Editor column, giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts on what CG&A’s departments are, how they’re run, and why we hope you benefi t from them. In 2002, Jim Thomas, CG&A’s editor in chief at the time, asked me to serve as the associate editor in chief for departments. At the time, I wondered what I was getting myself into. I had been the Applications department editor since November 1994, and getting my department together every issue was challenging enough. I was wary that keeping an eye on (at that time) seven departments could be a bimonthly headache. I needn’t have worried. The other departments at that time included Theresa-Marie Rhyne’s Visualization Viewpoints, Larry Rosenblum and Mike Macedonia’s Projects in VR, Carl Machover and John Dill’s New Products, and Gary Singh’s About the Cover, as well as Jim Blinn’s and Andy Glassner’s columns. I learned right away that I could count on this talented group to deliver great content issue after issue without prodding from me. Other than the typical last-minute deadline scares and occasional author controversy, the headaches have been few and far between. It has been my distinct pleasure over the years to watch CG&A’s departments grow and evolve.
