Well, aside from that subject. At one point in the video he mentions updates to source such as FLOWING WATER!!! W000000000000!!!
He's either referring to:
a) the Gels
b) the flowing water texture

Oh wow, I'd never read that before--that's actually really innovative. It would be nice if there was an easier way to build flow maps though (I don't really have much information about Houdini).

Yeah my mind was pretty much blown there. Not as much as watching Avatar, or seeing Natal in action, but you know what I mean.
Pffft, Avatar? Whatever. I didn't even see it, but I still don't get what was so incredible about it (yes I can see a contradiction there but I don't care).
Still think the water presentation's cooler.
I just gave an example.
Anyways the new water stuff was extremely WOW and I can't wait 'till we can get our hands on a simpler method.

Neither broken nor corrupted for me. I'd host it for a bit if it's legal--is it, given that it's their publication and they've linked to it on their site?

I guess I'm fortunate then :p
Sounds very promising.
