Affine geometry is sometimes described as "what remains of Euclidean geometry when distances are forgotten". In this talk, I will report on a very recent discovery of an affine-invariant notion, which may be viewed as a distance from a point inside a convex domain to its boundary. This new concept stems from a suggestion of Conan Leung, who proposed to average the canonical tropical series, a fundamental notion of tropical optics, over the manifold of all tropical structures of fixed covolume on the given affine space. Very little of what we (Nikita Kalinin, Ernesto Lupercio and me) currently know, [...]
