Turning a sphere inside-out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVVfs4zKrgk

This is really, really cool. They describe things in really simple terms though (like referring to curvatures with smiles and frowns) and sometimes I wish I could connect it to the math that I know if relevant terms were brought up. The animations are simply amazing, and I can't believe this was made in 1994!

I was wondering if anyone knows if these people made other videos like this using their techniques... So cool!

    I have converted the question to [community wiki](http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/11740/what-are-community-wiki-posts/11741#11741), as it's asking for a list of examples and there is no single right answer.2011-08-30
