About the Event
The Shadertoy Competition 2015 is a month long event designed to learn, network and share your knowledge about shading, ray marching, reactivity and proceduralism.Everyone can participate, from your place, for free!
The Shadertoy Competition 2015 starts on July 11th (Saturday) at 3pm PT with the announcement of the theme for this competition, participants can submit shaders until August 10th (Monday) 3pm PT. During that month, contributors from all over the world can participate from their homes. On August 10th a jury will vote to decide on the top shaders, those will be shown on August 11th during Real-Time Live! at SIGGRAPH 2015. The audience will pick the winner of the Shadertoy Competition! The competition award ceremony is part of the official program of Real-Time Live! at SIGGRAPH 2015 Finally, the awards will be send to the winners after the event!

About Shadertoy
Shadertoy is a web tool that allows developers all over the globe push pixels from code to screen using WebGL. It is free for everybody and it is accessible via www.shadertoy.com.
In less that two years, its users have created thousands of fragments shaders that explore a wide variety of real time graphics algorithms such as raymarching, procedural texturing, modeling and animation, fractal geometry, image compression, volumetric rendering or motion blur.
Shadertoy is also a social platform, a place for professionals and students alike to learn and teach about visuals, interactions, reactivity, modeling, GPU internals and shading.
