I will introduce the Speiser and Eremenko-Lyubich classes of transcendental entire functions and give a brief review of quasiconformal maps and the measurable Riemann mapping theorem. I will then discuss tracts and models for the Eremenko-Lyubich class and state the theorem that all topological tracts can occur in this class. A more limited result for the Speiser class will also be given. I will then discuss some applications of these ideas, focusing on recent work with Kirill Lazebnik (prescribing postsingular orbits of meromorphic functions) and Lasse Rempe (equilateral triangulations of Riemann surfaces).
