Hell, 6 years ago Arnold almost had his campaign derailed because Warren Buffet dared to question California's sacred initiative.

And that was a full-length novel, later turned into a major motion picture, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Exactly, with the move to RIS, they're in pure path-tracing now, and they're still behind Arnold generally from a performance perspective.

Seventeen years later, Professor James Arnold is kidnapped by unknown assailants, led by Internet billionaire Richmond Valentine and his henchwoman Gazelle.

Using large amounts of geometry has been done before, but renderers such as RenderMan and Arnold require that all geometry fits in the memory at once.

Some people will sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger for life though.

I think they're finding out the same thing benedict Arnold found out.

I've seen Arnold Schwarzneggar engage users on /r/fitness, and he has posted several videos (that tank one was one I saw recently) along with doing PR for his Terminator movie.

BTW, for those who don't know, solid angle is the company behind the Arnold Renderer, and the creator of cycles, Brecht Van Lommel left the Blender Foundation not so long ago to work for them.

DNeg are still using Mantra (and Clarisse) for a fair amount of stuff (Ant-man is their first production using just RIS in PRMan 19/20), Framestore are solidly Arnold now, and Weta are using their own PRMan clone (but a path-tracer) called Manuka.

That's how I did it - my first job had Ken Arnold as the CTO, then when I got to Google I'd lurk on Jeff Dean or Rob Pike's code reviews (everything is public internally at Google, you can see what everyone's working on).

T: Irving Penn, Arnold Newman, Philippe Halsman, Jim Marshall, Max Yavno, Arnold Newman, Joel-Peter Witkin, Ruth Bernhard, Herb Ritts, William Garnett, Joseph Koudelka, Sebastiao Salgado, and Horst immediately come to mind.

Cycles can do most stuff that Renderman (or Arnold) can, but that's not the point.

Arnold has advocated for long the intuitive teaching which basically is to introduce the ideas of mathematics using concrete tangible and often practical examples.

Displacement and subd performance is still very impressive (compared to Arnold), but motion blur (especially deformation for curves and triangles) has a noticeable overhead now.
