[Paraview] CFP: SC18 Vis Showcase

Thu Apr 5 16:30:36 EDT 2018

Of course we'd love to show your work on the paraview.org website too after
the contest.

We are more than happy to put text and links of your choosing up with the
images and videos.

Contact me off list to work out the details.

> BEST VISUALIZATION
