Interesting stuff! :)

However, for the sake of sanity can you please describe:

Who G.Borshukov is.
What the papers are on.
The point of news posts is to be informative; your post tells us nothing about the links, and whether we want to spend our time looking at them.

G.Borshukov is the guy behind the cool camera effects seen in "The Matrix" I think.

No, he's behind the CG human characters; that for some strange reason looked a lot cooler in all the extra material, presentations and such than in the actual movies.

^ Quoted for agreement.

That being said, however, I'm still appreciative of this article. This is also the first time I've ever seen any of these "Reloaded" screen caps at these higher resolutions. The Hugo Weaving diffuse/lit texture map alone is worth the price of admission (free!). A very valuable learning resource overall.
