      It's all around the tourus, as is "the outside", then you also can't do anything to change it to the other shapes, because the line will go around the insides of the tourus and come out to the same place it was before.

    There is something deeply beautiful in topology, where the shapes defining feature is not as much the area shaping the hole, or any such property that can be expressed as positively being and thus causing the hole to appear. That all can be abstracted away, morphed and scaled, but the hole itself and crucially only the hole survives as defining feature that gives raise to unique characteristics. A negative being, lack of being, is what defines the object or objects that fall under the category.
    The fact that we humans feel often so keen and connected to something we project as being and notice the lack off, or absence, and that it makes deep and complex sense mathematically, is to me beautiful. After all that is required to even notice a hole: you project something that is not there, and give particular meaning to the lack of it. Else it would be a tunnel; maybe set of low ceiling, walls and floor. There is no definite need to notify the absence or mark it with meaning: all things lack almost everything. Yet we gravitate towards negations and not only give them meaning but define and assign meaning to whole things based on what negations they include.

      I just realised why odd dimensional shapes have Euler characteristic 2 and even dimensional shapes have Euler characteristic 0. Because each shape also has 1 of itself and 1 null set (negative 1 dimensional thing). This makes all Euler characteristics 0 (without holes).

    what is funny is the part where I have been typing it as "VIOLA!" for ages, awaiting someone anywhere to speak it this way.
    Thank You!

  • @Lufernaal

    The other way is all around the tourus in a horizontal line. The first shape is a square, right? The second is a "ring" that circles the tourus like a ring circles a finger in a sort of vertical way and it can move around horizontally. The third is a straight line going all around the tourus, in a sort of horizontal way, and connecting it around it. You can then go around vertically, reaching the inside of the tourus. You can never make that line become the other two shapes.

    Hey, i love the content of your videos! You deserve much more attention. Only thing that makes it sometimes hard to unterstand and fallow is your accent. I know that is hard to change. I am from Germany so my accent isnt perfect neither. You can use an app called Elsa Speak to exercise your accent, it uses AI and is very good. I know this may sound stupid to you because you are probably a native speaker but it could help grow your channel a lot.

      Thanks for the tips! This is not my normal accent, it's one that I'm putting on by popular demand. Hopefully as I get more used to speaking in a more Americanized accent (I'm also getting a new mic, so the entirety of the audio will eventually improve) the issue gets sorted. Meanwhile I've put subtitles on the video.
