First of all, I&rsquo;m glad to see you are still holding up after this pandemic. Be safe out there, both you and your loved ones!</em></p> <p>Finally! Today we start our journey through Mordor. For some time now, I have been excited to write a complete series of posts about something I love in graphics (in the same style Fabian &ldquo;ryg&rdquo; Giesen did, <a href="https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/2011/07/09/a-trip-through-the-graphics-pipeline-2011-index/">here</a> and <a href="https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/2013/02/17/optimizing-sw-occlusion-culling-index/">here</a>). The first problem with this idea was choosing a topic, as there are so many things I love in the rendering literature, so many that it was hard to pick one, but I decided to stick with Shadows, more specifically the Shadow Mapping algorithm and its gang.</p>
