Went to school with this guy in San Diego.
"Imagine the most complicated and beautiful geometric shape you can, and then imagine this shape twisting and dancing over the four dimensions of space/time we live in. Through quantum mechanics, this dance unfolds in all possible ways, and you experience one of them. All the things we see are aspects of this shape, and the dance is how they move."

-Garret Lisi, Surfer and Theoretical Physicist explaining his "Theory of Everything"

Only kidding, of course. Pretty cool stuff there.

Welp, "theory of everything" or "Unified field theory" or "Garret Lisi" yielded no hits. Then I went wide with "Physics" and it got a bunch of hits on 35mm adaptors, which, as far as I know, don't have much to do with the shape of the universe.
