Explorable and interactive media seem to bake in an assumption of finiteness, which makes it challenging to interact with the infinite and arbitrary objects that appear in mathematics.

Examples:

  • The Witness builds up complex puzzles starting from simple ones. But each puzzle is finite (finite board size, finite state space)
