Geomview is available --- 3D object viewer

[munzner]

   I wonder whether you would have some slides of Geomview uses (and a short
   description of what the slide is about)?  This would be very helpful when
   I do give this talk, and perhaps I the talk would help spread the word about
   your work.

I'm wondering what kind of slides you had in mind.  I think that would
be hard to communicate the use of geomview through static slides since
one of its main features, 3D motion, is dynamic: a videotape clip
would be much more informative. We've made a few special-purpose tape
snippets that were more focused on geomview applications than a
general overview of the capabilities of geomview itself.  I've had it
in the back of my mind for a while now to make such a tape (<10 min)
but have not found time: I could probably be convinced to make it
sooner rather than later.  The quality level of this order of tape is
an order of magnitude primitive than Not Knot: ok for showing at
conferences but definitely not polished.  I could now send you an
already made snippet (<5 min) about tilings. I could probably be
convinced to make a general demo tape sometime soon (i.e.  within a
month or two). Do you have any particular timeline in mind?

 I'd also like information on any further animations you may have done
 recently.

Perhaps coming soon: a quite polished videotape about orientability
and eversions of curves and surfaces, a slightly polished compilation
of summer student projects. I can let you know if/when these are done
(maybe at the end of the summer).
