The product of this project was broadcast in April 2001 as a 25-minute episode of the science series Noorderlicht, under the title "Denken Als Discipline". It is available in Dutch, with English subtitles, as a 300MB MPEG-1 file. Thanks to Jos Wassink, Producer/director, and Karin Spiegel, Executive producer, for permission to reproduce it.
