I have always thought of lectures not as a way to convey information but rather enthusiasm.

A dull (or bad in other ways) lecturer almost always turns me off to a topic. A lecturer who is excited about the topic always makes me want to know more about something.

I remember a lecture about insect flight muscles I listened to in 2005. Before that I never really thought about muscles. For a whole day after that lecture I wanted to study muscles as my research topic.
