Siggraph 2019 Resources

Siggraph 2019 is upon us, and I’m collecting links to real-time and production rendering resources that I’m interested in. Hopefully this list will help me make time to actually read all this great stuff! For a more comprehsive list of Siggraph 2019 links and general goodness, check out Stephen Hill’s blog.
