[4eyes] Jeff Lait from Houdini visiting Friday

[Theodore Kim]

A small point for discussion at today's meeting: I've invited Jeff
Lait, the Senior Mathematician from Side Effects Software to give an
informal talk on Friday. I've tentatively scheduled him for 2 PM, but
is there a time others might prefer?

Side Effects Software makes Houdini, a competitive product to Maya,
that (in my opinion) has superior simulation tools. He will be giving
a talk about using Houdini in research. It is possible to use it for
free, as the Apprentice edition is fully featured, including data
import/export, but watermarks its renders.
