Classic CGI
Year Interest Started: 2018Classic computer-generated imagery (CGI) mostly boils down to simple raycasting. I think its nice to differentiate between what's real and what is a 3D artwork and simple raycasting gives things a fantastical sort of look (you can tell it's not real and that's a good thing). It's a whole aesthetic separate from newer CGI methinks.
This wallpaper from KDE 3.x / TDE is a perfect example
