Dimensions - Documentary movie about mathematics

Dimension Two - Hipparchus shows us how to describe the position of any point on Earth with two numbers… and explains the stereographic projection: how to draw a map of the world.

Dimension Three – M.C. Escher talks about the adventures of two-dimensional creatures trying to imagine what three-dimensional objects look like.

The Fourth Dimension – Mathematician Ludwig Schläfli talks about objects that live in the fourth dimension… and shows a parade of four-dimensional polytopes, strange objects with 24, 120 and even 600 faces



Buy The DVD! If you like the movie.
