      I would really like to hear more from Carlo Séquin. As a student of electrical engineering, I've heard his name in a class I'm taking where we learned to program a RISC processor (NIOS II on an Altera DE0 board). You should invite him to talk about RISC on Computerphile; it's a significant development in computer engineering that I think viewers would take an interest in. I think he also did some interesting things with SPICE and graphics, but I can't recall. TL;DR: I'd like to hear more from this guy!

    A bagel is made by joining the two ends of a tube of dough.
    If you put two tubes alongside each other, twist them and join the end of one to the end of the other then you get one continuous piece of dough, the same result as Carlo gets when he cuts a bagel while rotating the knife only 180 degrees (at 7.36 in the vid).
    If you do a double twist and join each tube to its own end rather than that of the other you get what Carlo gets earlier on (1:33) when he rotates the knife 360 degrees, the two tubes are separate pieces of dough but chain-linked.

You can get this solid by taking the function 1/x for x >= 1, and then rotating the entire function on the domain [1,infinity] about the x-axis.

    10:40 The Galactic Concentrater. I've gotta say, I'm kinda curious as to what the "right spot" entails.

      Probably Séquin himself haha. And I bet they're pretty easy to make in something like Openscad where you can define surfaces parametrically.

      Carlo Sequin is a computer scientist famous for pioneering a lot of modern computer graphics and CAD software... so yeah, he probably did it himself

      I meant the cut illustrated at 09:43 in the video. I'm not really a fan of fanciful names like the one you mention. :)
