  1. 🎉 Part 1 of our crowdfunding is fully funded – 112K CHF raised!
    We’re very close to securing Part 2 too – just 13K CHF to go to bring full arc support into !

    ⏳ We've extended the campaign until the end of July!

  2. You can also explore #non-Euclidean space and here is the same action in #HyperbolicSpace (here in a #PoincaréDisc). #StraightLines are replaced by #GeodesicLines which look like #CircularArcs which intersect the #disc at #RightAngles. Circles are transformed to circles but their hyperbolic centres are not at their Euclidean centres.

    Repeating the construction for Euclidean space, you can see that the parallel lines diverge.
