This was fascinating viewing. I think I may have been dimly aware that “the Lena image” was a thing, I have somewhat vague memories of reading somewhere that an image from Playboy had played some sort of key role in the development of digital image processing, but I knew nothing else apart from that… so this was really educational, and I have a lot better understanding of why Lena was and is important, and what she means for the industry and the culture at large.
