*in the video I incorrectly state that the product of Poisson/Dirac manifolds is a product in the category of Poisson/Dirac manifolds with Poisson/forward Dirac maps. I thank Eckhard Meinrenked for pointing out this stupid mistake which, luckily, doesn’t affect the main discussion in the talk. In the slides at the link the mistake has been amended.
