It'd been a while for me, too, but just felt like listening the other day. I was wondering to myself if it would still sound new. It kind of did, but not so shiny as at first. Still rocks my socks, though.

We used and experimented with stuff like this when I was working for Ford. Certainly we had a less refined scanner to plot out the geometry of cars in order to get them into the computers from CFD analysis, but we also experimented with pressure sensitive paints that glowed under ultraviolet light during wind tunnel test.
Long story short, the technique they are using has been around for a long time, the computers are simply powerful enough now to enable real time, digital recording of motion.
What have you done?! I've finally finished reading Brideshead Revisited and was curious about the film, knowing that it's supposed to make more out of the 'romance' and all.
