RIP David Lynch (1946- You know about death, that it's just a change— not an end. Never, never! Nothing will die. The stream flows, the wind blows, the cloud fleets, the heart beats. Nothing will die.

My superstar student @MarkGillespie64 is on the academic job market 🤩: markjgillespie.com/ Beyond lots of beautiful, deep, award-winning research in geometry processing, he's just a terrific person who we already miss having around. Twist his arm if you want him to apply!

🚀 Introducing SimVS: our new method that simplifies 3D capture! 🎯 3D reconstruction assumes consistency—no dynamics or lighting changes—but reality constantly breaks this assumption. ✨ SimVS takes a set of inconsistent images and makes them consistent with a chosen frame.
