The lecture was on "the sublime" in Western painting and digital imaging. The images that caught my attention were one of Caspar David Freidrich's "Wanderer above a sea of fog" and JMW Turner's "Fisherman at sea". In both these paintings the sea dominates as a powerful and dangerous presence and which humans are at the mercy of. A video of a digital 3D model of Mount Everest also caught my attention as I can envision how it was created using a program similar to CryEngine.
