This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Smart Graphics, SG 2005, held in Frauenwörth Cloister, Germany in August 2005.
The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for presentation. The papers address smart graphics issues from the points of view of computer graphics, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, graphic design, and fine art; they are organized in topical sections on synthetic characters and virtual worlds, generating visual displays, text and graphics, 3D interaction and modeling, novel interaction paradigms, and poster presentations and demos.
