Hey, I used to go to that AMC theater!

NeRF is one of the big "holy sh*t" moments for me in recent years. I've always thought using polygons as our only way to represent non-trivial 3d shapes felt awfully inelegant, like using raster images instead of vector graphics.

Definitely recommend checking out the HN discussion of the original NeRF paper[0]

Yeah wasn't sure what I was seeing.
