I attended the event called OoO, which is an offline meeting for offline renderists. The word renderist means people who are making renderer or interested in it.

The contents of the event is as follows.

• Keynote by Toshiya Hachisuka
• Report of SIGGRAPH 2008
• An introduction of DEMO scenes.

These were all attractive and interesting. And talks about the Larrabee also were ubiquitous.

I have a long standing issue. The issue is if providing server-side offline renderer itself is able to be a business going concern. Once I had tried at 2003, but it failed. I thought it was too early and it would need a time of 5 years. So I gave up the business and switched to make a web application.

And the 5 years went by...

The gang's all near.
