Goodwillie calculus has at its core, cubical homotopy theory, for example, a functor in Goodwillie calculus is linear if it sends homotopy pushouts to homotopy pullbacks. In this talk, I will describe the connection between the orthogonal calculus of Weiss, and R^n-cubical homotopy theory, which is the analogue of cubical homotopy theory, with the set of n elements replaced by the Euclidean space R^n.
