Probably related to the previously mentioned article "The New Face of Gaming", GameSpot has posted a video a week ago featuring Will Wright and other speakers. They had a discussion about "Graphics: Then & Now". A 50-minute feed of this event is available for download at GameSpot. You can stream it for free (with a GameSpot Basic account), but if you have a GameSpot Complete account you can also download the file in high quality (1.2 Gb!). Although I haven't seen it myself yet I suppose it's worth checking out, especially for Will Wright fans.
