Hello everybody,
I am trying to simulate the example "Or This A^2+b^2=c^2" used by AK en the TED conference (8:44) but unfortunelly I am not arriving to the expected results. Does anybody know if the etoy project (I just need the example: A^2+b^2=c^2, not the complete presentation) is available in the web?

As Alan wrote, his version is just moving pieces around. You could create three squares in proper sizes, and four right triangles in the right size and try move them around. For some specific animating effect you would like to get... if you don't mind, perhaps you can upload your version somewhere so that we can take a look at it?
