★★★★★ · beautiful and insightful animations · jensenr30 · 2019-06-27

This program shows excellent geometric animations. Watching these animations is almost like attending a good math lecture.

★★★★ · Minimal and beautiful · Utopia Parks · 2010-12-27

Minimal and beautiful animation, including a gentle soundtrack. Worth watching for sure, the end section is very cool.
