Transparencies:

• Quantum Physics confronts Einstein's Gravity. [Postscript]
  
• Quantum Physics confronts Einstein's Gravity. [PDF]

Some selected graphics:

• Feynman diagrams [Postscript].
• Feynman diagrams [PDF].

A grid or lattice of spacetime points:

• Lattice [Postscript].
• Lattice [PDF].

(Used to represent the idea that at short distances spacetime *might* be discrete, not continuous.)
