In this video, David Jaz Myers describes 3 different modalities by which
mathematicians might model aspects of the world using sheaves. It touches
on some of the ideas we have been kicking around regarding Wolpert's paper,
on the one hand, and William James ideas about agreement, on the other. The
video is pretty accessible for non-specialists. David does a pretty solid
job of showing how categories aim to capture perceptions we might have
about the world.
