Description
1 videocassette (approximately 20 min.) : sound, color; 1/2 in. +
Summary
This video is a guided tour into computer animated hyperbolic space. It proceeds from the world of knots to its complementary space, what's not a knot. It shows the geometry of the knot complement, the space around the knot, and then the viewer sees what it is like to "fly through" the hyperbolic space. The supplement contains the video script and provides further explanations.
