Aug 15, 2012 at 12:39 | comment | added | Lee Mosher | Yeah that's a great film. It is a continuation of the story of existence vs. construction. The construction depicted in that film was discovered by William Thurston, but in this case not as another isolated construction but as an implementation of general proof method for simple homotopy problems | |
