Nomdep was referring to the pictures in TFA -- the rest of the comments are explaining why a mall may look like that. Not an entire city. A reasonable interpretation of "you see that everywhere" is "most cities have a mall o

To be fair, some of us learned about quaternions over finite fields before anything about 3D graphics. The first time I heard about this application of them, I was gobsmacked. Saying this because my professor for that course was quite exc
