Abstract
I present a new approach to shape inversions that provides both computational simplicity and an alternative, unified
understanding of the inversion operation. Instead of modifying the circle inversion formula for different shapes, my
method changes the metric from Euclidean to a shape-dependent one. As a by-product, I outline a technique to
construct new metrics and pseudo-metrics from given shapes, and suggest various non-inversion applications.
