Well that's an easy one. CGarchitect is owned by me and the focus is solely marketing visualization and likely always will be. VisMasters is owned by ArchVision and I only work for them in the capacity of business development. The two companies are completely seperate.
While the line is often blurred because of my very public involvment in both companies and the joint ventures we do together, the two are very seperate companies with very seperate agendas. Thus, the goals of the VisMasters conference are not the same as the industry goals of CGarchitect. Granted the DMVC happens to cater to the marketing visualization industry too, and as as far as I can tell will for the foreseable future, but for the conference to be sustainable, it needs to cater to a much wider demographic. This year the conference is making it's first big push to grow in this direction, and is the reason why we opted to host before the AIA conference and why we are adding more BIM/Architecture sessions. But, as I've menitoned already, if you chose not to see anything BIM related you'd still come away better, IMHO, than you have in past years as a visualizer.
