Kurt Doolittle introduces a course on geometry vocabulary, emphasizing the need for a consistent language across various fields. The course explores geometry and modeling terms, manifolds, and n-dimensional objects. It discusses mapping, measurement, and spatial representation, as well as cognitive models and perception. The importance of creating actionable models of reality is highlighted, with a focus on understanding dimensions and cognitive processes.
