Fun! When I saw spherical harmonics I was confused about why spherical harmonics would come into play in a voxel universe (isn't everything flat?). Digging into it a bit I found out more about spherical harmonic lighting: http://www.research.scea.com/gdc2003/spherical-harmonic-lighting.pdf http://www.research.scea.com/gdc2003/spherical-harmonic-ligh...
