Have been watching your channel for a few months now last week I had my first general relativity lecture, I’m so hyped to deep dive into all this. Your videos are really the perfect combination of visual intuition and actual understanding. I appreciate all the work that must go into them, keep it up🙏

Dialect
For our latest video on Geodesics, we built a fun Blender tool for transforming a circle sector into a cone -- it's free and available to anyone on our Patreon page! www.patreon.com/dialect_philosophy
The tool lets you customize numerous aspects of the cone, including size, height, and degree of extrinsic curvature introduced. You can also continuously transform between Cartesian/Polar coordinates on the surface of the cone, or, if you know your way around Blender a little, you can use your own custom material/image, to see how the introduction of a little extrinsic curvature alters it.
We also built a tool for graphing geodesic paths on any given 2D curved, which we might make more user-friendly and put out if there's any interest. Lastly, if you haven't seen the video on Geodesics yet, make sure to check it out! https://youtu.be/m6WY6VtPYrk
